Morning all,

My wife and i shares a same apple id for both our iphones. We are intending to purchase the 200GB icloud storage plan for backing up of our iphones. Will there be a conflict when both iphone backup up to the same icloud? Example: will her contacts and mine clash?

Nope.. As long as both iPhone setup different name.. All iPhone backup have own specific ID, nothing will clash

By right, your contact and your wife will been already conbin togerther if both of you uses same appleID. Like wise the same as photo streaming...etc. 1 possible reason you still see seprated contact I guess is because you saving at the phone itself rather the icloud.
Although the backup is not a problem with different device backup in the icloud. but why do U need 200GB of icloud storage? Do you include the backup of the photo as well?

Both my wife and i are using 64gb iphones and yes we were thinking of backing up our photo and videos too. There are only icloud subscription plans of 5GB,20GB,200GB etc.. The 20GB may not be enough for us so the next available option is the 200gb. Guess i may have to sign up another apple id for my wife since we do not wish to have our contacts and notes mixed up.

Anyway thanks for all the advice.
