Preparing your Apple accounts for estate transfer involves two primary strategies: designating beneficiaries on individual accounts and aligning account ownership with your broader estate plan. Both approaches bypass probate, but they work differently depending on the account type.

The transfer rules at Apple vary across 4 accounts. Below is a breakdown of beneficiary options, trust funding, and which products support each method.
