How To Change Your Apple ID And Phone Passwords On An iPhone?

Your iPhone identity can be safeguarded with 2 vital passwords- 1. For your Apple ID account and 2. To unlock your device.

Even with the fame of biometric security such as Face ID and Touch ID, the truth is that passwords and passcodes are here to stay and we will keep unlocking applications, services and phones with secret codes in the coming years.

Your iOS device should have 2 passwords that you frequently use- your Apple ID, which grants you access to services such as iCloud, Find My iPhone and the iTunes store, and the less compulsory password or passcode which keeps your phone locked when it is not in use.

Several users make use of a 4 or 6-digit numeric passcode for locking their devices for comfort, but you can decide to use a longer one or a complete alphanumeric password if you want.

Both Apple ID password and the iOS device’s passcode can be changed whenever from your iPhone.
