How do I seperate two connected iPhones?
My husband's phone is somehow connected to my phone. When mine rings so does his. How do I separate the phones?

One thing to check: go to Settings -> Phone (or if your iPhone is on iOS 18, Settings -> Apps -> Phone) and if Allow Calls on Other Devices is turned on, turn that off.
Also, if you are both using the same Apple Account on your phones, that's not a good idea as it can cause all sorts of confusion. You should each have your own Apple Account and set each up individually on your own phones.

Stop sharing an Apple account. You each need your own.
