Incorrect Apple ID displayed.

Hey guys,

I’d like some help.

When I go to my Apple ID settings at the top of my settings menu my email address is incorrect underneath my name and photo.

In all my settings it’s fine, there’s nothing I can find to change it from my wife’s email address to mine in order to fix it, but my phone thinks that I’m on my wife’s Apple ID anyway.

iPhone 7

Hi there,


From what we can tell, your wife is signed into iCloud with her Apple ID on your iPhone and you're asking how to sign in with your Apple ID. We're glad you're here, and we can help. To start, you'll want to have your wife sign out of iCloud on your iPhone. This link provides step-by-step instructions for doing so:


Sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple TV, or Mac


Afterwards, you should be able to sign in with your Apple ID using the steps here:


Sign in with your Apple ID


Cheers.
