“Texts” refers to two entirely different types of messages.

  • iMessages, sent to/from Apple devices. These are not “shared”, but independently communicated to/from your Mac.
  • SMS/MMS messages, sent to/from cellular telephones. Stop sharing these at Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding on your iPhone.
