Apple ID

My daughter and I Share an Apple ID/iTunes account on our phones...I'd like to set up a new Apple ID on just MY phone so that they're separate. Do I have to reset my phone in order to do this? What will I lose on my phone?

iPhone 6

Hi gr82bmom,


It sounds like you're going to create a new Apple ID for yourself, so you want to know how to completely sign out of the old Apple ID on your iPhone 6 and learn about the data that's associated with the Apple ID.


You don't have to reset or erase your iPhone, you just have to change the Apple ID that's associated with specific services as described here:

Sign in with a different Apple ID on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Also, with Family Sharing, you can share each other’s iTunes, iBooks, and App Store purchases as outlined in the article below.

Cheers.
