Easily Have 2 or Multiple iCloud Accounts on One iPhone/iPad

You may want to add multiple iCloud accounts to one iPhone or iPad for a variety of reasons, such as separating personal and work accounts, and using multiple people with the same device requires differentiating iCloud accounts to sync personal data, and you may also have different Apple IDs to match iCloud services.

If you have this kind of demand, congratulations on coming to the right place. This article provides you with step-by-step instructions on adding and using multiple iCloud accounts on one iPhone and guides you on how to manage your iCloud data.

2 Ways to have multiple iCloud accounts on one iPhone/iPad

Here are two workarounds you can use to have two and multiple iCloud accounts on one iPhone and iPad at the same time.

Way 1. Add a secondary iCloud account for Email

If you want to access data from multiple iCloud accounts without merging them, you can set up separate email accounts for each iCloud account on your device. This allows you to manage email, contacts, and calendars from different iCloud accounts without affecting the core iCloud services like backups and photos.

Step 1. Open Settings on your iPhone/iPad > Scroll down and tap on Mail.

Step 2. Select Accounts and choose Add Account. Follow the on-screen instructions to add your additional iCloud email accounts.

Step 3. After adding another iCloud account to your iPhone, you can go to Settings > Mail > Default Account to select the email account you wish to use as the default for new emails.

Way 2. Access another iCloud account via private browsing

If you want to learn how to add another iCloud on your iPhone to have access to its data (e.g., photos, files, etc.), and you don't want to affect the iCloud account settings you primarily use, then you can use Safari's Private Browsing feature. The steps are as follows:

Step 1. Launch the Safari app on your iPhone/iPad > Tap on the tab icon in the bottom right corner > Select Private to open a private browsing session.

Step 2. In the private browsing session, navigate to iCloud.com > Log in using the credentials of your second iCloud account.

Here, you can access the data from your second iCloud account without affecting your primary iCloud settings.
