hey guys it is Paul from wondershare mobile trans and welcome back to another video and
today we're going to be looking at a question that we get asked quite a lot on the channel and that
is if you are able to merge two iPhones with the same Apple ID so have two iPhones with that same
Apple ID and if you want to know the answer make sure you keep watching right until the
end of the video because we will give you that definitive answer by the end but if you're new
here to mobile trans and why don't you go ahead and subscribe to the channel so you don't miss
out on any videos that we upload to this Channel and of course while you're there why not give it a
like and hit that notification Bell as well but let's get into today's topic and today's video
foreign of today's video is can you use the same Apple ID on multiple iPhones and the answer to
that is yes yes of course you can you can still use that Apple ID on up to 10 Apple devices at any
one time but if you do that what you need to try and do is avoid mirroring if you do mirroring all
that sensitive data will be exchanged between two iPhones and also all text messages call histories
and all of that stuff are then accessible to the other user on the iPhone and sometimes that's
something you do not want and one of the worst things is they can change your playlists they
might be able to log into things like apple music and delete some of your favorite songs which is
an absolute nightmare so if you are using the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and you
need to go ahead and practice that isolation and this is exactly how you would do that
first sign in on both iPhones using that same Apple ID select the option sign into
your iPhone on both devices enter your Apple ID and password and that is of course how you
would then set up your Apple ID on that device but then what about those syncing options well
this is how you would go about doing that on both iPhones go to settings select Apple
ID and then select iTunes and Apple store and then make sure you click on disable automatic
downloads for your apps and now that means that you will avoid mirroring when using
that same Apple ID on two different iPhones but then what if you go onto your iPhones the
two new ones with the same Apple ID what happens with iCloud at that point how can you make that
function separately on two different iPhones well let's get into our second method of this video
when we started this video one of the things that I mentioned was that once you use these
same Apple ID that data that is available on one iPhone will then be available on the other iPhone
and another and another depending on exactly how many Apple IDs you're going to have signed
into the iPhones and a way to avoid that is by unsyncing those iPhones with the Apple IDs
so there's a few different methods so let me show you exactly what you would do to get on
that this method is to separate two iPhones via the iPhone settings so first of all you'll need
to go into that Settings app then open the Apple ID Page by tapping on your profile then from the
new screen choose the iPhone you wish to unlink from the same Apple ID and then hit remove if
you're asked for a password enter the password associated with your Apple ID or iCloud account
this will start the procedure to delete the other devices Apple ID or iCloud account after deleting
the former Apple ID sign in with the new one on the second iPhone what about if you want
to use iTunes in your computer to unsync then don't worry we have a method for that as well
so let me show you launch the iTunes software on your computer then in the cloud tab navigate to
iTunes and select the manage device option the third step is to select the iPhone from which
you wish to delete the Apple ID and confirm that deletion this procedure is the same on
both Mac and windows and after the Apple ID will be deleted from that Associated device
foreign
if you want to share certain files or information with a spouse for example then you would use the
same Apple ID on two different iPhones and if that is the case then you might want to use
these methods to move some of that data across to iPhones so let me show you the first method apple
has a natural tool for creating family groups and inviting other members to join the group
so everyone can easily exchange data to avoid using two iPhones with the same Apple ID then
just follow these next steps go to the settings menu select your name and select the option for
Family Sharing turn on Family Sharing and ask additional family members to join the groups by
following the on-screen instructions you can also join another person's group furthermore you may
enable Family Sharing on your Mac and smoothly share between your iPhone and Mac even if you
use an Android phone there might be a portion of your day so that you actually still want to store
in iCloud and there is a really really easy way to to make sure you can help transfer that and have
people access that data by using something called mobile trans mobile Trends can transfer data
between two phones and it enables you to exchange data with other iPhones over iCloud regardless of
the device which they are using so if you want to download this then go to the mobile trans website
and you can download it for both Mac and PC but let me show you exactly what I'm talking about
and show you a demonstration of this start mobile Trends on your computer and connect your phone to
the computer through its USB cable then from the main interface go to the top area and pick phone
transfer then iCloud to iPhone access your iCloud account and input the verification code that was
sent to you then pick the iCloud data category you wish to recover then just select the files and
click the restore to device option in the bottom right corner of the screen press the start button
and begin restoring iPhone data from the cloud loud and once that's done you can then disconnect
your smartphone from the computer once the files have been restored Apple ID controls everything
that you do from your books to your music and your photos so an Apple ID is really a one device only
thing it's also a good idea to try and avoid using the same Apple ID on other phones because like we
mentioned in this video a few times personal data can easily be transferred and you might not even
know what they have on that phone but if you do want to transfer data then mobile trans remember
is the piece of software for you because you can move your photos videos contacts documents music
and all other data nice and easily with just a click and that is it for today's video If you
