Apple is making changes to Apple ID, with plans to rename it "Apple Account" with the release of iOS 18, expected next month. Apple has a long history of changing the names of its online services.

Its online cloud services began as iTools, then changed to .Mac, MobileMe and finally iCloud. While iCloud itself doesn't change its name, the account used to sign in to iCloud does. According to Apple, the change will take place with the release of iOS 18 and macOS Sequoia.

With the release of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS Sequoia, and watchOS 11, Apple ID is renamed Apple Account to ensure a consistent sign-in experience across Apple services and devices, and it builds on a user's existing credentials. It appears that the change will have only a minimal effect beyond a name change.
