Home sharing invite "merges" invited user account with the owner account
Hi, I'm trying to set up a Home account for my family and experiencing bizarre behavior.
Every time I invite my son to the newly created home account two storage behaviors occur:
- He is getting the invite from my @icloud.com alias instead of my apple id (although I don't have that account logged in anywhere)
- Once he accepts the invite, my user suddenly disappears from the home account and his account appears as another user with his apple id but my media apple id.
This behavior doesn't happen with any of the other residents that I invite, they are getting it from my correct apple id and are added without any issues.
I tried to check if there is anything strange in my apple id account or his apple id account but couldn't find anything.
This behavior occurs also when I try to invite him from my mac so it's not an app/iPhone-specific issue (although I did delete the app and reinstalled it just in case)
Any clue or suggestion will be highly appreciated.
