Call History Remains After Fresh OS Install
I just downloaded and installed 8.4 through iTunes on my AT&T 5S. I did NOT restore from a backup, just a fresh install. All I have done so far is sign into iCloud to sync all that is Apple. I have noticed my "Recents" within the Phone app has a list dating back to 6/6/15.
I guess I am looking as to what is syncing this information? Possibly iCloud data, KeyChain, Carriers (AT&T in my case since they apply their own "settings").
I have noticed this another time a year back or so, and I remember this list being scattered (random dates) with a history going back over 2 years.
