Apple has redesigned its Apple ID website, introducing an entirely new look that's much more modern and clean than the prior design that was used.
The Apple ID landing page has been updated with a new dot and Apple logo design, along with information on what the Apple ID website can be used for. The prior design was graphics heavy, featuring a large banner with people using various Apple devices.
Logging in to the Apple ID website presents all of the available Apple ID management options in a card-style view, plus there are navigation options on the left.
The card view offers information at a glance, like your Apple ID, your notification email, whether you have two-factor authentication enabled, and the last time that your password was updated. Clicking through the navigation options brings up more info like your name, birthday, reachable email addresses, device list, payment options, and more.
The entire website is simple, responsive, and easy to navigate, and it's quicker than the prior website. The new look is a definite improvement over the previous design for those who need to manage their Apple IDs on the web. The new website design can be found at https://appleid.apple.com/.

The iPhone 17 series is no different – already we have some idea of what to expect from Apple's 2025 smartphone lineup. If you plan to skip...

With the iPhone 15 models that came out last year, Apple added an opt-in battery setting that limits maximum charge to 80 percent. The idea is that never charging the iPhone above 80 percent will increase battery longevity, so I kept my iPhone at that 80 percent limit from September 2023 to now, with no cheating. My iPhone 15 Pro Max battery level is currently at 94 percent with 299 cycles....

OMG this so much!! I don't understand why this hasn't been done yet. I hate having to have my old account for my purchases than my iCloud email used for my apple ID. UGH.
Juli has this Bruce Wayne set up with iPads. She's hacking into all the mobile and tablet devices in the world to run a distributed dictionary attack against crypto criminal networks. If successful she will destroy all arch villains, terrorists and populist dictators by draining their dirty money and bankrupting them.
I would gladly pay a one-time fee to merge my original iTunes account email address, which now governs all of my subscriptions, with my newer iCloud ID/email.
