Family Sharing Contacts Merging
Hello,
I was wondering if you could help me.
We have 3 iPads for our 3 children.
we recently set up ipad 3 for child 3.
when we did this I received all their contacts and by deleting them on my phone, deleted them from their ipads.
We all have our own apple IDs so not sharing accounts. We do share a family iCloud account but I read that doesn’t merge contacts.
I have gone into iCloud settings and switched off contacts which has fixed the merging issue but that means their contacts are not backing up to the iCloud which is not ideal for the future.
my sons iPad has contacts switched on, has his own Apple ID and shares the iCloud family but I don’t get a copy of any of his contacts so I don’t understand why this iPad/setup is different
any help would be massively appreciated
