Hello. I have an issue with adding my Gmail account to my Apple ID. When I'm trying to add it there is a pop-up message that tells it's an invalid email address, but the thing is that I'm using this gmail account in browser and it's fine. Would be very thankful for any kind of advice. Thanks in advance!

iPhone SE, iOS 13

 I suggest going here to change your Apple ID: https://appleid.apple.com/#!&page=signin But, before changing it, read:

Invalid or not available? Apple hasn’t published any guidance for using an address again. Normally, if your e-mail address was associated with an ID in any way, for example as a Reachable at or Rescue e-mail address, then it can't be reused with another Apple ID for approximately one year. I have also seen posts that stated Apple told them there was a 30 day waiting period before the address could be used again. You will need to get another e-mail address to use as your Apple ID or you can try waiting 30 days to see if that works.
