iOS 26.4 brought a variety of new features and changes when it launched last month, including a design overhaul for Apple Account screens in several system apps. Here’s what’s changed.
iOS 26.4’s design for Apple Account menus offers better organization, consistency, and visual upgrade
Not long ago, Apple rebranded Apple IDs as Apple Accounts. You might not have noticed, though, because until now the change largely just applied to online support documents and webpages.
But in iOS 26.4, the company made the first big changes to how various Apple Account details are displayed on the iPhone.
To take a look, open one of the following apps:
- Music
- Podcasts
- TV
- App Store
Then tap your profile image in the top-right corner to load the Apple Account menu.
The new design for these Apple Account pages is pictured above, with examples from Music, Podcasts, and App Store.
If you’re wondering what all has changed, iOS 26.4 still has at least one example of the old design available.
Inside the Apple Books app, Apple has yet to adopt the new Apple Account design. Though hopefully that will change in a forthcoming update.
Here’s what the Books app looks like:
As you can see, the old design has a bunch of random options but little organization to it all.
Meanwhile, the new design has common groupings of menu items across different apps, new options like ‘Add Money’ and ‘Send Gift,’ and a bit more visual flair than what was available previously.
It’s not a huge overhaul, but iOS 26.4’s design changes make these Apple Account hubs a little more user friendly and consistent than they were before.
What do you think of the new Apple Account page designs in iOS 26.4? Let us know in the comments.
