Question: My child and my contacts are crossed

Hi. I handed down my old 8plus to my minor child. She has her own Apple ID and is a minor on family sharing but our contacts keep getting crossed (I feel really weird texting my husband when it says I’m texting Daddy 😂).


if I remove the 8plus from my Apple ID, will that solve the problem of our contacts getting shared?

iPhone 11, iOS 13

Have you switched the phone to your daughter's Apple ID? If you have, it shouldn't be on your Apple ID.


When changing to the new ID, there may be some data loss, but you can minimize it. If syncing photos with iCloud, ensure Optimization is turned off in Settings/Your Name/iCloud/Photos and/or in Photos/Preferences/iCloud. Then make sure full resolution photos are on the device/computer. When signing out of iCloud, if asked whether you want to retain data, choose yes. Messages conversations will be lost if they are addressed to the ID. See the article below for other places that the old ID should be removed. See Winston Churchill's response in the below discussion.
