What is a joint savings account?

A Joint Savings Account is when two people have joint access to the savings account. If a Wife and Husband, Boyfriend and girlfriend, parents and child open a Joint Account then "either" one of them can access ALL the money in the account. If one of them is involved in an illegal activity the Police can freeze the WHOLE account and "can" take ALL the money. It would be up to you to prove the money didn't come from the illegal activity. (Actually they would freeze separate accounts in the same household also) Good and bad parts are you both can access the money as needed, but the other person can "empty" the account with out your say so.

No, you have an undivided interest in the entire bank account and it is up to you and the other joint tenants of the account to agree how the account will be used.

When adding your spouse to bank account does it have to be a joint account or can they just have a card and other access?

It depends on the type of account - and the bank. If you're simply wanting the spouse to be able to spend money that's in the account - they can be added as an additional card holder. Alternatively - if you want the spouse to have equal control of the account (changing credit limits for example) - then it's better to have the account in joint names.

What are laws with siblings sharing a bank account and one takes all the money out but the other was who the money belonged too?

one of the problems with a joint bank account is everyone on the account has access to all the funds in the account. this also applies to overdrawn balances, if an account has a negative balance then all signers on the account can face the negative consequences. on the other hand if only one of the siblings in question is a signer on the account that person would have legal right to all the money in the account.

This may depend on the country your in, but I would suggest not. If the debt in question is a debt solely in your name, this will mean the other party on your joint account is not liable for your debt, so they cannot take funds from your joint account.
