Do the apps have to sync if I use two Ipads with the same Apple ID?

I have a work Ipad and a new personal Ipad. I use the same Apple ID for both. Do the apps have to sync or can I just keep the work apps on the on tablet and use the other one just for home?

iPad Air (5th generation)

Greetings Jaboli,


Great question. You can adjust your iCloud settings to select which apps you want to sync, on your iPads. Here's how:


Change which apps sync and store data with iCloud

"In your iCloud settings, you can choose which apps on your device sync and store data with iCloud. Learn how to change your iCloud settings, or turn off iCloud completely. 


When you turn on iCloud for an app, its information is safely stored in iCloud and automatically kept in sync across your devices. When you turn it off, the app no longer connects with iCloud, so your data exists only on your device.

You can choose which apps on your device you'd like to use iCloud, or turn off iCloud completely


Choose which apps to use with iCloud

After you sign in to iCloud on your devices, learn how to find your iCloud settings on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, or PC.


On your iPhone or iPad

  1. Go to Settings > your name. 
  2. Tap iCloud.
  3. Tap to choose which apps you want to use iCloud."

Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities.

Have a wonderful day!
