How do I stop photos on my iPhone from being shared to other devices?

The photos on my iPhone are being shared to other computers that we own. I'm intentionally backing up to iCloud but I'm clogging up my family's photo app.

That’s easy. See→What is Family Sharing? - Apple Support

and→Share App Store, iTunes Store, and Apple Books purchases with Family Sharing - Apple Support

That’s because you are sharing an Apple ID with those other devices. It is OK to share an Apple ID with devices used by one person, but Apple IDs should never be shared between different people.

That makes sense. Without opening up a whole other can of worms, I guess I need to figure out how to share things like Apple Music and other apps without using the same Apple ID.

Thank you!
