multiple Devices in Health App

If I delete devices of family members from my health app settings, will my family members loose the data in their devices health app? We all use the same apple id.

thanks

Yes. But you are making a big mistake sharing an Apple ID. Your Apple ID is personal; it is not intended that it be shared. A lot of bad things will happen if you share an Apple ID. See this Apple ID FAQ, point 4—>https://appleid.apple.com/faq/#!&page=faq


You can still share things that you want to share (and not share things you don’t want to share) by linking your personal Apple IDs with—> Family Sharing - Apple Support

First off, everyone using the same Apple ID is a bad idea. That causes all sorts of mixing of content, and someone could delete something they don't want and it create a problem for the person that wants the data. Your best bet, if you are concerned about sharing selected content, is using Family Sharing, Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support


Create backups of everyones' content, then designate the Family Organizer, let them keep the current Apple ID, and then create new Apple IDs for the balance. Then go through the rest of the Family Sharing setup and designate what to share.
