Apple is considering changing the name of its “Apple ID” soon and rebranding it as “Apple Account”. So, just like how Android users call it Google Account, Apple users will have to refer to their dedicated Apple Account to access various services like iCloud and the App Store.

Sources, suggests that Apple’s plan to rebrand Apple ID to Apple Account is expected for later in 2024, coinciding with major software updates like iOS 18 and watchOS 11. Apple might introduce this change at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in June, giving developers time to adjust their apps before the fall release.

Interestingly, Apple already uses the term “Apple Account balance” for funds added to an Apple ID. This report suggests a move towards a complete name change. Sources report mentioning an internal “Apple Account” team further strengthens the rebranding plan.
