Merged Voicemails, help!

I use two iPhones, one for work and one for personal. I carry them both. When I upgraded to iOS 17, the voice mail gots merged. When someone leaves a VM on one phone, it shows up on both. Same as leaving a VM on one, it shows up in the other. When I delete a VM on my work phone, it gets deleted on the business phone and vice-versa. Not sure what is going on but I need to separate them! Help!

iPhone SE, iOS 17

That happened when iOS 17 was introduced and can't be changed, if you use two phones on the same Apple ID. You should have a separate Apple ID on each phone if you don't want your calls and voicemail messages appearing on both phones. I would NEVER use my personal Apple ID on a work phone.


If you want to unmerge, see how in this article written by a very respected forum member, Lawrence Finch --> How to “unshare” an Apple ID - Apple Community
