On the iPad, go to Settings/Your Name/iCloud and make sure Photos syncing is turned off. That will allow you to sync your iPhone photos to iCloud if desired, but the photos won't download to your iPad.

iPhones sharing Apple ID I have recently purchased an IPhone 14 Pro Max, once it is delivered and I set it up I want to use my Apple ID that I already use on my current IPhone but also use it on this phone. I’ve been told I should do this without mirroring, so apps I download and photos I take are not automatically shared between the two phones, but if I turn off mirroring would the same subscriptions for apps/I Cloud be shared on the two phones?
