Apple renames "Apple ID" to "Apple Account" to improve user experience

News on March 18 pointed out that according to technology website MacRumors, Apple plans to rename the long-used "Apple ID" to "Apple Account (Apple Account)". Now, Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman confirmed the news in his Power On newsletter, saying that the new name will be officially launched on the network later this year and in an upcoming major software update.

It is understood that Apple plans to rename core software, including updates such as iOS 18 for iPhone and watchOS 11 for Apple Watch. Previously, Apple had renamed the funds added to Apple ID to "Apple Account Balance." According to Gurman, Apple has established a team within Apple specifically responsible for "Apple Account," showing that Apple is fully prepared for this rebranding plan.

It is expected that later this year, with the official launch of the new name "Apple ID", this term that has been used for more than 20 years will gradually fade out. Although the specific reasons for Apple's decision are not clear, analysts believe that "Apple Account" will be easier to understand and remember, which will help improve user experience.

Apple plans to hold the WWDC developer conference in June, where it is expected to release important software updates such as iOS 18. It is said that the meeting may announce that "Apple Account" will be renamed to another name. A new system update is expected to be launched in September, when users can experience the changes brought about by this name change.
