You created two separate Apple ID accounts and, unfortunately, it’s not possible to merge accounts.


Select the account with most purchases made on it, start using it on all devices. Before stopping to use the other one, make sure you do not have any active subscriptions associated with it.


If you made purchases on both accounts, you can set up Family Sharing between them to maintain access to those apps.
