There could be several reasons why you are seeing your wife’s phone calls on your iPhone. One possibility is that both of your iPhones are using the same Apple ID for iCloud. When multiple devices are connected to the same Apple ID, they can share certain data, including call history. This means that any calls made or received on one device will show up on the call history of all devices connected to that Apple ID.
For example, let’s say you and your wife both have iPhones and you both use the same Apple ID for iCloud. If your wife makes a phone call on her iPhone, that call will also appear in the recent calls list on your iPhone, since both devices are using the same Apple ID. This can sometimes lead to confusion and make it seem like someone else is using your Apple ID or that your device has been compromised.
To determine if this is indeed the case, you can check the Apple ID settings on both iPhones. On each device, go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud and see if the same Apple ID is listed. If it is, then both devices are using the same Apple ID for iCloud, which is why you are seeing each other’s phone calls.
To resolve this issue, you can consider using separate Apple IDs for iCloud on each device. This will ensure that call history and other data are not shared between devices. However, keep in mind that this may require some additional setup and may affect other aspects of device syncing and data sharing between devices.
It’s worth noting that sharing an Apple ID for iCloud can have its benefits, such as easily sharing purchased apps, music, and other content between devices. However, it’s important to consider the privacy implications, especially if you don’t want certain data, like call history, to be shared between devices.
In addition to iCloud settings, it’s also worth checking the settings on each iPhone for features like Call Forwarding or Call Sharing, which could also be causing the issue. These settings can sometimes be accidentally enabled, leading to calls being forwarded or shared between devices.
If you have ruled out iCloud settings and call forwarding/sharing, another possibility is that your wireless carrier is somehow linking the two iPhones together. This is less common, but it’s worth contacting your carrier’s customer support to inquire about any potential cross-device linking on their end.
If you are seeing your wife’s phone calls on your iPhone, it is likely because both devices are using the same Apple ID for iCloud. By checking the iCloud settings on each device and potentially using separate Apple IDs for iCloud, you can resolve this issue and ensure that call history and other data are not shared between devices.
