Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Recently, whenever I shoot photos on my iPhone, they show up in my husband's iPad, which he really does not like. After I deleted them from his iPad, they also disappeared from my iPhone. I must have set up something wrong in Settings; any advice?

How can I prevent my iPhone photos from going into my husband's iPad? I could turn off Photo

Streaming, but then those photos would no longer go into my desktop computer, which I do want.



iPhone 5s, iOS 12

If you’re sharing the same Apple ID, this is the expected behavior.


And as iCloud Photos is a syncing service, photos added or photos deleted anywhere are added or deleted everywhere, so what you saw there is expected, too.


Here’s a general write-up on how to transition to a different Apple ID with minimal loss of data: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250056638?answerId=250097611022#250097611022
