I'm also experiencing this today (June 2, 2020), but on a Mac.
Maybe some more detail that could help: this morning I got an error "Your Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons." Not entirely sure what happened, I went through the recommended steps and reset my password on a MacBook Pro (2019 - work laptop), and then logged in to AppleID/iCloud again. I repeated this on my iPhone XS successfully. I was also able to log in to my AppleTV successfully.
This evening, I opened up my MacBook Pro (2015 - personal laptop) and got prompted to log back in with Apple ID - not surprising. But I got the "The application you have selected does not exist" error repeatedly. I rebooted also. No luck.
Edit: There is indeed an issue ongoing - if you look at https://www.apple.com/ca/support/systemstatus/ - there is an outage listed:
iCloud Account & Sign In - Issue
Today, 5:16 PM - ongoing

Issue resolved friends. have fun :)
Ok this was happening to me but I just found out that there was an update so I updated and it stopped
Th and for that suggestion! There is an update for my phone, it is still loading and won’t let me download yet. I’ll let you know if that works!
Updated to 13.5.1 and tried again - everything worked
Not sure why, but that worked! Thanks!
Rebooting my iPhone and MacBook Air seemed to fix it
I just had the same problem. So I turned my Wifi off and on and if there was any other available one I switched it. Let me know if that works for you.
I tried that and it didn’t work for me. Someone said there is a new IOS update that is supposed to resolve the issue. Waiting to see if it works
No problem!! Also try checking again because now mine is logging in properly!
Check that IOS is version 13.5.1. I just updated and the problem went away.
I have the same issue, i found out when i was trying to update my payment method to get apple music then i kept showing me that msg and i nearly changed my password like 4 times i was freaking out.
I had an update that needed to be done. Never let me know though.
I updated to the most recent IOS Software Update and it solved my problem. Hope it does the same for you!
The update worked

It wasn't an update issue. Apple had a server issue that has now been resolved.
