how do i stop all of my photos i take on my iphone being put onto my ipad camera roll through icloud?

Every photo i take on my phone its automatically put onto other devices camera rolls. this is annoying as these other devices are used by more than one person and these photos could be embarassing photos from me in younger years and its understandable why i want it fixed. help

iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.6

They aren't. They are put into the Photo Stream.

On other devices, you need to manually select them and add them to the Camera Roll.


and these photos could be embarassing photos from me in younger years

How are you taking pictures now of you in your younger years?

You're welcome.


I would be remiss not to mention that ideally you should not be sharing an Apple ID for things like iCloud, iMessage or Facetime. You can share an Apple ID for iTunes & App Store purchases and still use a separate ID for iCloud.

If you choose to keep sharing an Apple ID for those things be aware that iMessages, Facetime calls, contacts, calendars, remiders, notes and iCloud mail may also be going to, sent from or edited on these devices. You may want to disable some or all of those items on yours or the other devices.

iMessage: Settings > Messages > iMessage - Off

Facetime: Settings > Factime > Facetime - Off

Settings > iCloud (from here you can toggle off the items you don't want to sync across devices)


If you choose to disable these things instead of creating a separate account and you currently use iCloud Back Up then be sure to backup your device regularly via iTunes.
