An AppleConnect ID is an Apple-specific identification code/name that allows a user to access certain applications inside Apple's network. This secure access is facilitated through Apple's Directory Services database. On iOS devices AppleConnect also features a gesture-based login system. The user sets up a pattern and needs to input that same pattern in, instead of a password or a numeric code. Apple deployed this login system internally for use in employee-only applications (i.e. Concierge, Switchboard) for iOS devices.
