Q: My recent calls appearing 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?

 

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

    darren will have a different explanation for that, one that fits his ideas. Just leave him and his problems to him.

    Thanks. This is literally the third time this has been linked into this thread, twice by me. Proof positive that some people are simply not reading what anyone is saying, just reacting out of emotion. There it is in black and white from an official Apple document that they do not want people sharing Apple IDs.

    You must understand that darrell, joe and other members of the Band do not want facts, they already know how it is, we are just noise to them.

    Immature responses? Seriously?

     

    I don't think this is much of a stretch, but I'm going to guess that you're a hard core Fox News fan who doesn't believe in global warming, and believes that vaccinations cause autism and a host of other medical problems.

     

    As has already been said, refusal to accept the truth will not alter reality.

     

    Maybe you should just get yourself a BlackBerry or a Windows Phone.

    I get calls from guys like this at work all the time. They're not concerned with how things actually work, just how their vision of how they "should" work.

    "But I don't want it to work like that!"

    I'm sorry. This is how it works.

    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID - Apple Support

     

    Quoting:

     

    Can I share my Apple ID with someone else?

    You shouldn't share your Apple ID with anyone else. It provides access to personal information including contacts, photos, device backups, and more. Sharing your Apple ID with someone else means you're giving them access to all your personal content, and it may lead to confusion about who actually owns the account.

    To share photos, a calendar, iTunes purchases and more with someone else, try these sharing features.

    This doc. is after "family sharing" was introduced. Read the last sentence then follow the link. Sharing ID's prior to the update was never an issue. If their update conflicts with the previous methods then sharing should be blocked in the system, not merely suggested in some hidden obscure Q & A. The majority of families with multiple phones have been sharing id's since the first i-phone with no issues. If the advent of family sharing is the future of sharing across devices then again sharing ID's should be disabled. Bottom line is if it doesn't work don't allow it.

    Apple has never recommended using one Apple ID for multiple people. It didn't used to break anything, but it still wasn't recommended. Now with iCloud it will break it, and Apple will still not recommend sharing Apple IDs with more than one person. You may prefer it a different way, but this is the official way that it is supposed to work for everyone, and it's documented as the intended behavior of the feature. You may not like this, but you're finally going to have to change.

    Nonsense, the majority of users (100's of millions) use iCloud correctly, and that is why you face the choice of joining them or living with the consequences of your choices. Accounts are free, what exactly is your objection to using them as intended?

     

    By the way, when your wife impersonates you behind an Apple ID how can Apple know, how could they disable that? after all, the deception is at your end, not theirs.

    Apple dictates the way you use your device. Try to delete an apple app. Try to download an app from anywhere but the app store. Try to set up a hotspot without a carrier contract. Apple should be able to eliminate ID sharing on their end if they don't want it done. It's not my job to tell them how, it's their job to make the system work.

    They also have never prohibited it, for 8 years. The ball is in apple's court.
