Unlink 2 iPhones from sharing texts and Notes

I have a personal iPhone X and a business iPhone 13 Pro. I don't want to completely disconnect them from each other for the sake of using Find My iPhone function on one iPhone to find the other iPhone. But..........


I don't want text messages shared between my 2 iPhones.......nor do I want any personal Notes that I create on my iPhone X to be shared on my iPhone 13 Pro.


How can I accomplish this? Is this type of customization possible?

The best way is to have 2 separate AppleIDs.


However there’s no “easy” way to “divide” the services and purchases.


A viable method might be to create a new AppleID for one of the two functions.


Then, setup a “Family” … with the “pre-existing” account being the “Organizer” who then shares to the “new” account.
