If they are creating a new ID, yes. If they are only changing the ID (Change your Apple ID - Apple Support), everything should transfer.

Switching Accounts still old iMessages from original account? I switched accounts on an iPad today from the original owner to a family member, ios 16.1.1. The iMessages from the old account are still on there, they want messages from the new account. When I go to messages > Settings > Messages > Tap Send & Receive > Use your Apple ID for iMessage, the new account email is there but the phone number is not there. I realized that the phone number for the new account was not logged in her iCloud Account, so I went and entered her number there also. Restarted the iPad and her phone number is still not there, and there is no option to enter it there, what is going on guys?

My iMessages are sending to other people in groups with my number and my Apple ID We got the new iPhone 16s and purchased the Apple one and shared with our family. Whenever I send messages to anyone in my “family” it will switch back and forth sending the message from Apple ID email address and my number. The weirdest part is that ive removed my email from my iMessage in setting and it’s sending a group message to my family from my phone number to their phone number AND my email address.
