Here are the details.<\/p>\n<p>Change set to take effect \u2018later this summer\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a <a href=\"https:\/\/developer.apple.com\/news\/?id=sus6t6ab\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">new post<\/a> in its Developer blog, Apple announced today that it will \u201cunify the email domains used by Sign in with Apple and iCloud+ Hide My Email under a single, shared domain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In practice, this means that the new domain, private.icloud.com, will be used to issue new email addresses for Sign in with Apple and iCloud+ Hide My Email.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From Apple:<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">New addresses generated for both features will be issued on the new domain. For example:<\/p>\n<p>Sign in with Apple addresses, previously issued on privaterelay.appleid.com, will be issued on private.icloud.com.<\/p>\n<p>iCloud+ Hide My Email addresses, previously issued on icloud.com, will be issued on private.icloud.com.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Apple explains, this change shouldn\u2019t affect users directly, since \u201cexisting addresses on the legacy domains will continue to work and forward mail to users without interruption.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, developers and email service providers may need to update their systems. Developers should make sure their account systems, email validation logic, and allowlists accept private.icloud.com, while email service providers should \u201cupdate any domain-based filtering, suppression lists, or routing rules that explicitly enumerate relay domains,\u201d Apple says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company didn\u2019t announce a specific date for the change, saying only that the new domain will roll out \u201clater this summer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apple also pointed developers to the following help articles for more details on Sign in with Apple and the Private Email Relay Service:<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To read Apple\u2019s full announcement, <a href=\"https:\/\/developer.apple.com\/news\/?id=sus6t6ab\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">follow this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Worth checking out on Amazon<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/google.com\/preferences\/source?q=https:\/\/9to5mac.com\" aria-label=\"Add 9to5Mac as a preferred source on Google\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-dark\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/google-preferred-source-badge-dark.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Mac as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-light\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/google-preferred-source-badge-light.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Mac as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"disclaimer-affiliate\">FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links. <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/about\/#affiliate\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">More.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/43xbZva\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1056443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1781597647_773_MSI-9to5Mac_750x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"150\"\/><\/a>\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Apple announced today that it will soon use a single shared domain for private email addresses generated by&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":573164,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[74],"class_list":["post-707069","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/707069","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=707069"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/707069\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/573164"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=707069"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=707069"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=707069"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
