How do I disable other iCloud devices from recognizing my own particular Bluetooth devices on my phone! Basically my AirPods connect with my family members devices unintentionally and if I forget the Bluetooth device on one phone it forgets it on all.
iPhone XS
I found the solution for Airpod Pro.

Are you sharing an Apple ID with them or vice versa? I'm not sure why your bluetooth devices are showing up on their devices. When I use my Beats or AirPods Pro, it doesn't show up on my wife's devices and vice versa. Perhaps -- Get Support.
This is a classic case of Redmond, er Cupertino, knowing what's best for its users and not giving an opt-out mechanism. I don't want Apple to make my Bluetooth connections promiscouous. I don't want my Watch, iPad, iPhone and MBP to automatically fight over my PowerBeats Pro headphones and other bluetooth devices. It is so aggravating on work conference calls that I'm ready to ditch thousands of dollars of gear to leave the ecosystem. This could be a nice OPTION.
This is actually ridiculous, for some reason they keep prioritizing connection to her phone blasting full volume music into my AirPods without anyone having done anything, the worst is when I go to forget device on Bluetooth settings it says that it will forget the device on all iCloud devices which is absolute bs. How is there no way to disable Bluetooth between iCloud devices ?????
yes it’s the same Apple ID but I cannot I don’t understand why I cannot have my personal list of Bluetooth devices without having them saved on all the others, and once again when I select to forget that device on the other phone it makes them forget on all of the devices including my own. There is absolutely no way around this, my iCloud is basically off as the only thing I use iCloud on my phone is Find my iPhone and back up, everything else is ticked off. This issue keeps happening and one day it’s gonna damage my eardrums as when the AirPods switch over without any notice the volume is at max. It’s starting to drive me insane and I am loosing my mind over this
No not at all that’s the weird thing, and the fact that my AirPods prioritize connecting to the other devices is even more frustrating and doesn’t make sense.
Did you figure out how to fix this because it is driving me crazy now too
Did your family members every at one point or another paired your bluetooth devices with their devices?

Anyone figure this out yet? Any response directly from Apple?
I got the same problem. Airpod Pro keeps switching between same apple ID devices such as iPhone and IPAD. And there should have some ways to prevent this.
We’ve tried multiple times and it doesn’t stick.
Mine also keep doing this and it is super annoying. When I am on my Mac and even pick up my phone they switch over. The only thing that works for me is having to turn off the bluetooth on my phone when I am want beats connected to my Mac. Its annoying to have to turn it off each time but at this point nothing else has worked for me.
Not sure why it's switching but perhaps you can consider resetting them -- Reset your AirPods - Apple Support?
