why am i receiving my husbands iphone pictures and messages?

Why am I receiving my husbands text messages (and vice versa) as well as the photos he takes on his phone? Both of us have IPhones, he the 6, I have the 5. Any ideas?

You are probably both using the same Apple ID, which can cause messages to be sent to multiple devices. Also, "My Photo Stream" will cause photos to appear on both.


I recommend that you both get your own Apple IDs, and if you would like to share purchases (download apps on both phones but only pay once), you can turn on Family Sharing.
