why are my missed calls showing on another iphone

When I receive calls the missed calls show on my wife's iphone. We both use Iphone 5S's and we use the same apple ID for icloud and purchases. But of course the numbers are different. Also the phones are on 2 different phone accounts.


Why are these two phones sharing the call log?


Thanks in advance.

Go into Settings>FaceTime>iPhone Cellular Calls>OFF. You will want to do it on both devices. You can share an Apple ID for purchases, but as KiltedTim points out, t can be difficult sharing the iCloud ID. It takes a lot of maintenance to do that with multiple devices.

Do you really want me to believe that I need to setup a different icloud account for every device or every user???

Yes.

Stop telling people that we need to setup different accounts, use find my friends... I am not looking for my friends! These are family devices!

Then use Family Sharing.


iCloud accounts are not meant to be shared. If you insist on doing so, you will have to live with the consequences. Complaining about it will not alter reality.
