Apple to Unify Sign in With Apple and Hide My Email on One Domain
Key Points:
- Apple will unify email domains for Sign in with Apple and iCloud+ Hide My Email under a single private.icloud.com domain starting later this summer.
- Currently, Sign in with Apple uses privaterelay.appleid.com, while iCloud+ Hide My Email uses icloud.com; both will transition to private.icloud.com.
- Legacy email addresses on the old domains will continue functioning with uninterrupted mail forwarding.
- Developers must update their systems to accept private.icloud.com addresses and may need to adjust email validation and allowlists accordingly.
- Regular users will not need to take any action, and the services will continue to operate normally.
