Hi Kimmies411,


Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities. You can create another Apple ID from one of your iPhones, then sign in there with the new Apple ID. Get started using the guidance below which is from How to create a new Apple ID - Apple Support.


"Create your Apple ID when you set up your device

  1. Tap "Forgot password or don't have an Apple ID?"
  2. Tap Create a Free Apple ID.
  3. Select your birthday and enter your name. Tap Next.
  4. Tap "Use your current email address," or tap "Get a free iCloud email address."
  5. Follow the onscreen steps to verify your email address, create a strong password, set your device region, and set up two-factor authentication. If you choose to skip this step, you'll be prompted to do this later in Settings."


If your goal is for these Apple IDs to share any content, it might also be helpful to set up a family sharing group for them. Check out Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support.


All the best.
