2 iPhones same Apple ID

My wife and I have two iPhones on my ID we end up getting each other call log. I would like to separate the phones so we don't get each others information. Is there any fix

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 13

One of you can create a new Apple ID. Still there will be some data loss.


See How to create a new Apple ID https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204316  and

 

See the data implications below.


Some of these things may apply even though not changing an Apple IDWhat to do after you change your Apple ID or password https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204071

 

 Keep in mind that some things available under a first Apple ID will not be available under a new Apple ID. For example, you won’t be able to transfer anything purchased from the App and iTunes Stores to the new ID. And, there are other issues to be addressed.

 

And see what Eric Root says on this matter here  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251483565 and

But, despite any other data loss you can set up family sharing between the IDs to share purchases made with them. See:
