Your daughter can see your photos on her iPhone likely because of iCloud Photo Sharing. If you both use the same Apple ID or have Family Sharing enabled, your photos might be shared automatically. To fix this, go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos and check shared settings. Consider using individual Apple IDs to maintain separate photo libraries.

FAQs & Answers

  1. How can I stop my photos from syncing on my daughter's iPhone? To prevent photos from syncing, make sure each device uses a separate Apple ID and disable Shared Albums or iCloud Photo Sharing in the iCloud settings.
  2. What is Family Sharing and how does it affect photo visibility? Family Sharing allows shared access to purchases and subscriptions, but it can also share photos if iCloud Photo Sharing is enabled across the family group.
  3. Can multiple Apple IDs be used on one iPhone to separate photos? You can only sign in with one Apple ID per device for iCloud services; using separate Apple IDs on different devices keeps photo libraries separate.
