If you are planning to change Apple ID, let us explain how. But, let’s take a look at what are the uses of Apple ID? To use an iPhone, you don’t require an Apple ID. However, it is required if you want to get the most off your iPhone. It is required to unlock some of the most convenient features of your phone. It allows the download of free apps, and FaceTime, among other things.
While setting up any Apple device you are prompted to enter your Apple ID, you can create an Apple ID at any time. Your Apple ID is essentially an email address, ranging from @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com to @gmail.com or any other third-party email address.
You can change your Apple ID on your Apple devices or even on a computer. Here’s how it’s done.
