Erasing ipad
I need to erase my ipad settings & data. Since my ipad and iphone communicate with each other, will this delete my iphone data as well?? I know if I delete photos on my ipad, it will erase off my iphone as well.
A reset of one device will have no impact upon other devices linked by the same AppleID - or data stored thereon. As such, for a device reset, data loss should not be a concern; only data stored locally and uniquely on device (if any) will be lost.
By contrast, manual deletion of data linked via iCloud will affect data accessible by the linked devices.
I hope this clarification is helpful.
