Difference between switching Apple ID and changing Apple ID
Keep in mind, switching Apple ID is different from changing. While in the former scenario you intend to jump over to an entirely new ID, in the latter you just wish to tweak or for that matter edit your IDIf you sign out of your current Apple ID and log in with another one, you will lose your purchased apps, Apple Music subscription, and even iCloud storage plan. Of course, you do get the option to keep a copy of your Contacts, Keychain, News, Reminders, Safari, and StocksWhen logging in with the new ID, Apple lets you merge the data on your iPhone with the iCloud account that’s associated with the different Apple ID. However, it’s not good enough and not everything travels to the other side of the fenceLet’s set the record straight; you won’t lose any of your data if you edit your Apple ID. To be more precise, your Apple Music subscription, purchased apps, contacts will remain intact. Apple ensures a seamless experience, so there is no chance of any mishap
