How to create a new Apple ID on your iPhone or iPad

1. Launch the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.

2. Tap on iCloud.

3. Tap on Get a Free Apple ID.

4. Enter your birthday and tap Next in the upper right hand corner.

5. On the next screen you can choose whether you want to use yourcurrent email or set up a brand new iCloud email. That choice is yours. So choose and then tap Next again.

6. If you chose to set up a new ID, choose what you'd like your new iCloud email to be on the next screen. Once you're done, tap Next.

7. Tap Create on the next screen.

8. If you choose to use an existing email, you'll be asked to check your email and tap on a link to confirm you own the email. Once you do, you can move on.

9. For both methods, you'll be asked to choose a password. We recommend choosing a strong password that has small and capital letters along with numbers and symbols.
