Q: My recent calls appearing on another iPhone!?

Setting up without a backup is not the issue. It is what iCloud account is signed on to any given device that is at issue here - regardless of whether that device has been erased, set up as new, copied from a backup. The data and media on the device is irrelevant. What matters is whether the same iCloud/Apple ID is signed on to the device. This is what connects them - the sign on.

MY exact question. This just started happening recently with last update and  my phone setting calls on other devices is off for both phones. It wasn't a problem before to share an apple ID.

I am on version 9.2

So I have the same problem and I know it is a "bug."  I share an iCloud account with the whole family so we can buy one large backup package and backup everyone's phone.  I have 3 kids and a wife.  All are iPhone 6s and all setup the same way on iCloud.  With one kid phone, I get arbitrary handoff "missed call" messages and FaceTime messages meant for her phone.  Handoff is disabled on both phones.

While I appreciate the "just don't share iCloud" advice, I have been doing this for several years without issue.  

I just noticed this issue with my phone and my wife's.  Here is how I fixed it:

Setting; Phone; calls on other devices.  Set calls on other devices to "off".

Hi

I answer this question almost every day .

Everyone needs there OWN apple ID

They are not made for sharing .

Every apple device with the same apple ID

Will get all the same infomation on them.

So you say.

SO I have this problem too and it has to be a bug or they now want us all to have our own iCloud account which never use to be necessary until one of the latest updates. I thought I had it figured out but shutting off all the sharing including going to facetime settings and shutting that off on my husbands phone and mine. But that didn't fix it. I may have solved it now, because I haven't seen any of my husbands missed calls on my phone from my husbands phone since Monday because  I turned off his icloud Drive. His photos still show up on the iPad and my phone which I want, but the calls do not. Maybe this will help, but apple really should fix this. We've all being sharing apple IDs for awhile and it's been fine.

the last thing I did finally worked. I shut off iCloud Drive on my husbands phone. I havent seen one of his calls on my phone since Monday. Photo sharing still works. I had shut off all the sharing before but not iCloud Drive and the calls would still show up. Give it a try.

Sharing Apple IDs worked when the only thing you could do with them was buy music and apps. But the features in iCloud have become greatly expanded, allowing sharing of documents, calendars, contacts, calendars, notes, Reminders, iMessages, Facetime calls and the ability to handoff messages and phone calls to other devices sharing the ID. So Apple IDs have become very personal, and the old ways don't work anymore. These are great features that I use many times in a day, from updating spreadsheets on my computer, then viewing them and modifying them on my phone and/or iPad and vice versa. I can create a shopping list on my computer and view it on my iPhone when I'm at the stores. Or I receive a call on my phone while sitting at my computer, and I can answer it using the computer rather than having to drag out the phone. I receive a text sent to my phone, and view it and answer it from my iPad. There are a myriad of combinations of these features that make life easier. But with this "personalization" of Apple IDs comes the fact that you cannot prevent your personal uses from being shared with someone else who has the same Apple ID. Thus, there would be no way to prevent my children from seeing my text messages (or me theirs) if they share my Apple ID. My wife could see my shopping list and reminders, including the gifts that I'm planning to get for her birthday. While I don't have any secrets from my wife, anyone who does have secrets from their SO will not be able to keep them secret if they share Apple IDs.

Apple's solution to the fact that Apple IDs are now highly personal was to create Family Sharing. It still allows you to share what you want to share, but also allows you to NOT share what you don't want to share. The only way to share an Apple ID and NOT share personal data (and I mean much more than recent call lists) is to go to Settings/iCloud on both (or all) devices and turn off all of the iCloud share options. Then you will be back to the old way. But you will be giving up a lot of very useful features.

It's so funny that everyone is in denial that this isnt a "bug" and an intentional feature...

Yes a "bug"...

That has persisted since May of last year...

Go ahead and hold your breath...

If it is indeed a bug, then Apple will fix it...

Ill continue not to share my Apple ID with anyone...

And taking an Applecare representative's word as an official statement from Apple is laughable...

It's a very useful feature that I use many times a day. I would be very unhappy if it stopped working.

Perhaps you can help me.  My Honda has a bug.  Every time that I push down on the gas pedal the car speeds up.  I want it to slow down.  When will Honda fix this bug?

You cant Share Icloud Space and some Other Tings too.

If it is a Feature so why i cant Turn it off like all Other Features ?

And if you look at Goggle youl see many People have this Problem ,so whenn it is a Feature why is ther NO Statement from Apple about this ?

Because it is no Feature.

Ask Bigger Companys which work with Iphones , iknew some and thy Think about Leaving Apple Because of this Glitch.

But keep on Prying to the Apple.
