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

    It is a bug . Confirmed as so earlier on the phone to Apple UK.

     

    No immediate fix imminent as they are not certain why it happens.

     

    It is not just icloud drive that is a factor.

     

    One of a number of current annoying bugs introduced in IOS8 & 9.

     

    Other big one is the unread message count bug when using exchange.

    Thanks!  Other folks have called Apple and have confirmed the same thing but not believed by the usual crowd...  It will get fixed eventually.

    I do think your right maybe I should go to an apple stone and not Verizon.  I thought Verizon could help me rest the phone and save all his date on their icloud first.  But maybe I dont have to do that.  I think I will go to Apple first.

    There are objectively better use cases than others

    Nonsense. You are under the delusion that, because you think something should be done a certain way, that's the most sensible, rational way of doing that thing and any other way is less sensible. Use cases (stupid phrase) are not objective. They are descriptions of what works best in a certain situation for certain people who have certain needs. My needs are different than yours. They are not objectively less important. They are only relatively less important to you. Is it really so hard to admit this isn't a right or wrong situation but rather a preference? It doesn't change the fact that what you want is important to you. You don't have to justify your needs by belittling the needs or desires of other people.

    That is a most excellent idea! That way, you know that you have a backup that you can then sync from if needed!

     

    Best of luck

    Wow... like 70 subscription emails today from this thread.   Some of you have way too much time on your hands to argue.   Bottom line is,  some of you hate that it does it and some of you think it's supposed to happen because apple designed it that way.    I solved my problem by replacing my one phone with an android phone. 

     

    Anyone that thinks that apple MEANT to do this, is seriously delusional.   I like apple, but at the same time realize they mess up.   Regardless of two people sharing an ID, it shouldn't be mingling missed calls and call logs from two separate phone numbers.   I am done with this thread, unsubscribing from it.   I can't stand the people who will stick by apple no matter what.   You really need to seek help.   This will get fixed, and I hope it does for those of you who still have it happening.   I simply couldn't stand it.   One person should be allowed to have 5 iPhones with different phone numbers, same ID and keep the freaking calls separated!!!!   

     

    Good luck everyone!   The best thing that could happen to this thread would be for a moderator to close it!!!!!!   it's just going around in circles for 62 pages!!

    Well said

     

    Also unsubscribing. Apple have 100% confirmed it is a bug. End of.

    All the Trolls and FanBoys in here can keep believing that Apple couldn't possibly have bugs. They have too much time on their hands.

     

    Good bye and thanks for all the fish.

    Are you accusing the poster of lying ?  On what basis?  So everyone who talks to Apple and reports back here the results are delusional and you other folks who never bothered know better?  Who is delusional?

    That was no accusation.  It was a statement of fact.

    Nonsense back!  As I gave in my example, should the use case of someone who doesn't need to save their word processing file be equated with the general case?  What is the purpose of a call log?  Perhaps some folks don't care what time the call came in, should the date/time be omitted from the log too as well as the target device?  Everyone I know looks at the call log to see what calls came in on their device.  They then return calls from the same device.  For those with multiple phones, you are in the minority if you claim you don't care which device the call came in on.  I am not belittling your use case, it just isn't mainstream.
