Family sharing - apps not listed

I set up Family Sharing in iOS
I purchased an app yesterday (Dark Sky, presumably a really accurate, as to location and time, weather app) and told my family to get it.
My wife's iPhone, under Purchases>My Name didn't list the app (nor any other for that matter)
Why would the list be blank?
I looked at her list of purchased apps (from my iOS device) and I could see the list.
Thanks!

Confirm that the App allows family sharing. Not all Apps allow it.

I didn't know about 'sharable' »support.apple.com/en-us/HT203046
That app is sharable
I checked all the other items on that page and they're all set properly
I guess the universal "fix it" is in order

send the developer [Jackadam developer@forecast.io] email and ask when they plan on making the app shareable. I am not 100% sure that its their email address I've posted above but I got that from their website »darkskyapp.com/

Really weird, wife's iPad sees app, so does my daughter's iPhone, but on my wife's iPhone...all of the Family Sharing Purchases sections are blank. According to her phone, no one has any apps.
I checked the settings and they seemed to be set properly.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

MVM,

Turn off family sharing and turn it back on?

Sign out of the App Store and sign back in? (Settings > iTunes & App Store > Tap on Apple ID at the top)

Is the same Apple ID used on both the iPad and iPhone?
