Call History showing up on another iPhone

Hi,


Hopefully you can help.


I use my phone for business and we have noticed in the last few days that all of the calls I make and receive are appearing in my wife's iPhone recent call history?


I have hunted high and low in settings on both phones but with no joy.


It is only affecting calls i make, not the other way round? so i am not seeing calls my wife makes on her phone in my recent call history?


[Re-Titled by Moderator]


It is also not affecting text messages...

We are both using the same iCloud account but the inconsistencies above suggest its something more involved (or very simple!)


The slightly odd thing is that it only seems to do it when my phone is at home, i went out this afternoon and the calls made/received have not appeared on her history. so maybe its a wifi thing?...but...


I also phoned vodafone when i got home to see if they could help (they couldn't!) and that short dial number is also not appearing on her history?

iPhone 5s, iOS 8.3

Yes me is two separate people with different names, numbers and emails. Why would I create a separate accounts when we have had iPhones for 5 years with no problems before? This thread is on page 126 on my phone, that has been mentioned ad nauseum. I want the phones to work like they have the last 5 years.

I tried every way possible. I called apple and I called AT&T. With no help at all. I went to setting iCloud and the turn the iCloud Drive to off. Give it about 24hrs and works great. Do the same on all devices on the same iCloud accounts. You can turn it back on once you do a backup then turn back to off. Good luck. It worked for me if it worked for you let me know.

If you change the my info on all accounts with different contact names where each person should have their own

email address added to their contact list, you problem will cease. This has worked for me. I too had this problem

with 2 iPhone, on for work and one for personal. When I changed the myinfo to different email contacts the problem

ceased even though both phones use the same iCloud account


Setting-> Contacts->My Info->Groups-> choose or add your individual email account. Voila done!

Hi,


I couldn't manage to get through the 123 pages of this thread, and I can't understand whether this advice is for people sharing Apple IDs between family members (which is actually not a good idea) or also for people like me having two iPhones (one for personal use, one for work).

I need iCloud to share contacts and agenda (and Find my iPhone, etc.) but I want neither personal calls to be listed in my work phone calls nor the other way around. Just because this is useless and makes one wonder why his colleagues did call him on his personal phone number…

The advice is primarily for people who are sharing an Apple ID with someone else who has a separate device. You're in a tougher situation. You can try turning of iCloud Drive on one or both devices. That might help.
