Information Shared with Old Phone

I recently transferred my phone to my mom and I bought a new phone. When I received my new phone, during setup it automatically transferred the data to my new phone. I could not erase and reset the old phone as I didn't remember my screen passcode. I now have my some of my data shared with my mom's phone including photos. Some text are shared but not all. Can someone provide some guidance?


iPhone 11, iOS 14
