I got a new phone for the first time and I did not have an Apple ID so I had to use my mom’s information to make my account but now her photos are in my camera roll and that when I sent her a message, it went right under what I had sent her like on the same side and when I go to settings, it says mom‘s name, not mine and has me as a family member so how do I get out of my mom’s account and go to mine?
iPhone 13, iOS 17
I had to use my mom’s information to make my account
