How do I stop sharing call history between two iPhones (one mac)

Same thing here Steve. But of course people will continue to say "don't use the same apple ID... yada yada yada". Apparently they don't understand that family share is severely lacking in that sense and is NOT a solution. Pretty sad implementation if you ask me. It seems family share is only meant really to share content purchases.

For us, it appears the iOS 9.1 has solved the issue: I turned iCloud Drive back on my wife's phone and after a few tests that previously failed, we're not seeing each other's call log.

Hoooray!! I hope this is a true fix and it sticks. I'll keep my fingers crossed and see how the next few days goes.

Regardless, I hope Apple offers additional sharing features for family share groups so we won't have to rely on bandaids or oversights in the feature set.

Does 9.1 fix the issue for others?

Hi

Stop sharing the same Apple ID since ios 8.00 data is sent to all Apple devices

with the same Apple ID when near your home WiFi

Change one ID .

This is so that one person gets all the infomation on all apple devices

With the same id but each person needs own apple ID .

I thought 9.1 may have solved the issue for me, but today it has started synchronising again across all devices. Not sure why it stopped, maybe it didn't, just that I replaced my work phone with a new one, so maybe it didn't realise straight away.

I find people's 'use different IDs' particularly irritating and entirely unhelpful (maybe even irrelevant), as I am using the same ID on my personal iPhone as well as my work iPhone, so both IDs are mine, so why should I use different ones. I need to see my content on my Apple ID, not have these separated, even if people want to share IDs with spouses, what's that got to do with anyone else. The reason I don't want calls syncronising is that I need to know which phone people have called so I can call them back on the same phone. Syncronising missed calls should be optional, as it really isn't helpful.

I 100% agree with you. I am currently on the phone with apple support and I am getting no where. They are just pusing to have everyone create their own account and/or do the family share plan. Like you the main reason I will not do the family share plan is that we all want access to the photostream. I also want to be able to use the full storage plan of the primary user and have the backups on that icloud plan. As I typed this I unsuccessfully completed the call to apple support getting nowhere. I don't think I need iCloud drive as I'm not even sure what it is. When I looked it was highlighed and it just looked like unnecessary apps are backingup to it. I have 5 phones (3kids, my dad, and myself) that use and like the account and my dad LOVES watching what the kids and I are up too so I do not want to give up photostream. I will try this suggestion at home tonight when everyone is with me and see if it helps. THANK YOU and if they do come out with a update, or something to click on/off or follow your suggestion and move the synced device to the allow calls on other devices area please send me an update if possible.

Hi

This is because you are sharing the same apple ID on both iphones

They are not made for sharing .

Change one apple ID .

Cheers

Here's my update.....shutting off iclouddrive and clearing call history on both phones worked!!!!

Hi

Do not share apple ID they are for one person only

All Apple devices on same apple ID will get all the same information / Emails .

Cheers

Respectfully Brian, please no longer reply to this thread. I understand you live by the books. Unfortunately for some of us, family share is not even an option. It does not address at all some of our use cases, I can't speak for everyone. For instance, the guy who has a work and personal cell but uses the same apple id. Is he suppose to use two apple id's? I think everyone would agree that it a little ridiculous.

As for why we continue to talk about this, have you every modified anything in your life? Or do you take your car to the dealership for absolutely every thing? Even an oil change?

I honestly have no idea what kind of satisfaction you get from constantly saying "you're doing it wrong" after almost every post made here. All we're doing is trying to help one another achieve the same slight modification that we previously had. There's nothing wrong with that.

"Respectfully", Drewzers, pay attention. Your hypothetical situation has NOTHING to do with the topic of this thread. This thread is about multiple people sharing the same Apple ID. It is NOT about a single person with multiple devices.

Start your own thread if that's what your problem is instead of attempting to hijack one that is completely unrelated to your problem.

The topic is 'How do I stop sharing call history between two iPhones (one mac)'. The detail talks about sharing devices with other people, but the question is the same, two devices regardless of the relationship between them. The relationship between my two phones has nothing to do with you or Apple, they are mine and I want to use both of them as I am one person, not two. I need two phones (greedy yes but still none of your business), and I need differentiate between who calls which phone.

To everyone else with helpful suggestions or just wanting answers. I've not solved this at all, I have unchecked the options people have suggested and still I get calls synchronising. The only outstanding thing is iCloud drive, which I really want between my two phones, so will turn that off tonight and try it.

No. It is not. It is a completely separate issue.

Explain exactly how this is different?

I afraid that if you can't figure out the difference between two devices being used by different people and two devices being used by the same person, I'm not going to be able to explain anything to you in a way you'll be able to understand...

Apple needs to figure out a way to "Family Share" the iCloud Drive between different Apple IDs.

Once they do that, we will all be able to sign up for individual Apple IDs and enjoy the full capabilities of Family Share and iCloud Drive.

Turning off the Handoff feature solved the problem of seeing each others' Recent phone calls.

We cannot establish separate Apple IDs without destroying the functionality of 1 iCloud Drive...deal breaker for us so we will continue sharing 1 Apple ID until Apple can figure out how to "Family Share" the iCloud Drive
