ICloud password

Is my iCloud password the same as my Apple ID password? I need to get a new phone (mine is an 8+) and will need to retrieve my data once I get the new phone

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 15

AnApple ID is used for everything you do with Apple (iCloud, the App Store, iTunes, this forum, etc) and there is only one password per Apple ID.


If you have 2 or more Apple IDs (usually not a good idea) then it would be possible to use a different Apple ID and password for iCloud.
