What happens if I delete iCloud off of my iPhone?

I don't think I use iCloud for anything and now my parents have iPhones and they went on the same ID as me and I don't want my stuff mixing with theirs. What will happen if I delete my account off of my iPhone?

Just turn off the sync options in the settings. You can turn of icloud completely but don't delete it. Everything in it will be deleted if you do that.

Firstly, I suggest you turn off iCloud.

By turning off iCloud, your parents won't get automatic updates if you take pictures of urself or anything like that.

Next, you can logout of your account on your iPhone but you can't delete it I think. The only problem is if you use a new account, anything purchased with your old account can't be updated with your new account. In the end, you may end up having to buy the same app.

My suggestion for you is to just let them use your account. Fact is the worst thing they can ever do is spend money using your credit card. Other than that, switching off iCloud(which btw s u cks to me) wil be enough.

PS: To logout your current account on your iPhone,

App Store>>Featured>>Apple id: xxxx>>Sign Out.

Hope this helps

Honestly i wouldn't worry about it because even with the icloud backup it saves the information on each ipad in a separate named backup so if you have "mom's iphone" "dads iphone" etc you can differentiate between them. But it would eat space up quick. If you want just keep the most recent backup from each one in the cloud

  • What happens when you delete iCloud? I don't use iCloud, and nothing is backed up on so it is essentially a blank account. So I was wondering what would happen if I delete the account on my iPhone through settings, will I gain more storage and will the "other" usage me minimized?
  • What happens when I delete an iCloud account from my iPhone? Recently, I just found out that my dad and I shared the same iCloud account on my phone and I really want to have my own privacy so if I delete my iCloud account, would that also delete the photos, apps, etc that was already stored on iCloud from my phone?
  • What happens to the data in my app when I delete it from iCloud? I have an app on my iphone 5 that I want to keep on my device and still play but it saves to iCloud. I know how to delete it from iCloud but will the app data just start saving on my device NOT iCloud? Will I still have All my data on my game?
  • What happens if you buy a iPhone of eBay and it happens to be stolen? I typed in a serial number of an iPhone into apple checker and it said the phone has not been activated? The phone is still sealed in its box is the phone ok to buy?
