What's an Apple ID?
Your Apple ID is the account you use to access Apple services like the App Store, Apple Music, iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, and more. And you can sign in to all Apple services with a single Apple ID and password.
Create an Apple ID
Creating an Apple ID is easy. You only need one to sign in to all your Apple services.
Sign in on your devices
Sign in with your Apple ID on each of your devices. You can do this when you set up a new device or later in Settings.
