I recently got an iPad 8th generation. V14.4.2. I paired it with my phone so it’s on the same iCloud account but it copied all of my photos. I don’t want all the photos on my iPad as it’s for work. How can I remove them from the iPad but not my phone?

iPad, iPadOS 14

Deleting photos from iPhone without deleting from iCloud I want to delete photos from my iPhone 14, but I'm terrified that I'll loose hundreds of photos and videos of my grandkids. How can I start fresh on my phone while still being able to access the pictures in iCloud? Thank you!

How do delete photos from ONE DEVICE only, leave it on iCloud? Hi, I have an iPad that I wanna give to my son to use, it is synced to my Apple ID, and iCloud. I wanna DELETE all iCloud synced photos on the device, WITHOUT them being deleted elsewhere. Then, I do NOT WANT any "new" iPhone photos to appear on the iPad. HOW DO I DO THAT?! If I unchecked "iCloud - iCloud Photos", and THEN deleted the pics, would it NOT delete off iCloud? I just tested that, and my NEW iPhone photos appeared on the iPad, so at least in that direction it doesn't work. Any way to fix this? Thanks

Turn off iCloud Photos library on your iPad.
