Answer 1

You VS could do that. Apple account management is available on Visual Studio for Mac, Visual Studio 2019, and Visual Studio 2017 (Version 15.7 and higher).

You must also have a paid Apple Developer account to use this feature. Before you begin, be sure to first accept any user license agreements in the Apple Developer portal.

You could check the requirements and steps on MS docs. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/cross-platform/macios/apple-account-management?tabs=windows#add-an-apple-developer-account
