Hi SomeRAMdomGuy,

I understand that you're seeing apps that you've downloaded on your iPad automatically downloaded to your iPhone. I know it's important to manage the content that is downloaded to your individual devices and I'm happy to help. What you're describing is associated with Automatic Downloads in the iTunes & App Store. To prevent apps and other content from automatically downloading to your iPhone, tap Settings > iTunes & App Store and disable the content you don't want downloaded. You can check these settings on each device to be sure Automatic Downloads are set the way you'd like them to be.

For more information about Automatic Downloads, check out this article: Turn on Automatic Downloads for iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store purchases

Best Regards.
