All iOS devices with the same Apple ID sync perfectly with each other. As a result, the user uses their devices more functionally. But if you decide to unsync your iPhone from your Mac, you can do it differently. First, decide for what purpose you need to unsync iPhone from Mac. You want to make them independent devices. Or you want to keep the same Apple ID on both devices, but you want them to not synchronize some information with each other.

If you want to give your Mac or iPhone to someone else or sell it, you have to sign out of the Apple ID on that device. This will make the device independent, and the synchronization of information will stop. If you continue using your Mac or iPhone, you can cancel the synchronization differently. This can be done by disabling Handoff between iPhone and Mac or disconnecting your iPhone from the Finder on a Mac. You can also disable AirDrop between iPhone and Mac.
