Upgraded Phone to Iphone 6s Getting new pictures from my old Iphone 6

I am a Vodafone customer , I upgraded my iphone 6 simply ,by buying myself a new unlocked Iphone 6s direct from Apple

I put my old Vodafone sim in my new 6s and then gave me daughter my old Iphone 6 , she then put her Vodafone sim in my old Iphone 6 , but now when she takes pictures they seem automatically appear on my Iphone 6s

How can I stop her pictures dropping onto my phone ?

Both phones are probably attached to the same Apple/iCloud account - yours, so that's why you see her photos (and probably vice versa).

You can go into the settings on her phone and remove your account, but ideally you should do a factory reset on the old phone and get her to use her own account

Do you have an Apple iCloud account? If so then it's possible the old phone is still associated with your iCloud account. Hence why it is uploading photos etc to your iCloud storage which then appears on your new phone.

So simple solution would seem to be to remove the connection between your old phone and your iCloud account. If you had done a full reset on your old phone before handing it over it should have wiped all of this for you anyway.

She's probably got access to your emails, any paid for apps, any stored passwords in Safari etc.

You should always reset a phone before handing it to someone else.
