Apple ID is the key to every Apple user’s access to Apple’s services in the company’s ecosystem, including iCloud, App Store, iMessage, FaceTime, Apple Music, and more. Apple ID is also necessary when a user is logging into a new iPhone or Apple product, for the services to sync automatically with the user’s Apple ID. Now since Apple ID is one of the most integral part of a person’s Apple devices and services, it is important for users to keep a safe password, in order to keep their Apple ID safe. There are also times when a user forgets their Apple ID password, and there are other times when a user may want to change their password. To cater to all such kinds of users, here’s a look at different ways with which users can change their Apple ID password.
