Hello Sara,

Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities. I understand you've had some trouble with content being shared between your phone and your daughter's, and I have some information that may help.

Apple IDs are not really meant to be shared by more than one person, as the primary purpose of iCloud is a syncing service between your devices. Your best bet is to have separate Apple IDs for both phones, and if there is content you wish to share, like apps, or photos, you can do so using Family Sharing, a free service that allows you to set up a family group that you can oversee. Have a look at the articles below for some helpful information.

If you run into any trouble, please reach out again.
Best Regards.
