I never got @icloud.com email address — used a Yahoo addy when I bought my iPhone. How do I setup @icloud.com email address now?
Note: I don’t just mean an iCloud account. That’s easy... I want an @icloud address, but can’t seem to figure it out.
Thx in advance :)
Create an email address for iCloud Mail
If you set up iCloud using an Apple ID that doesn’t end with @icloud.com, you must create an @icloud.com email address on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac before you can use iCloud Mail.
Note: If you set up iCloud using an Apple ID that ends with @mac.com or @me.com, you don’t need to set up an @icloud.com email address to use iCloud Mail. You already have an equivalent address that ends with @icloud.com.
> System Preferences, then do one of the following:If you don’t see onscreen instructions after turning on iCloud Mail on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac, you already have a primary iCloud Mail email address. To create an email alias, see Use email aliases on iCloud.com.
After you set up your @icloud.com email address, you can use it to sign in to iCloud.com and your devices in addition to your Apple ID.

To create an @icloud.com mail, start by downloading the iOS Mail app to your iPhone.
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mail/id1108187098
If it is already installed, go to:
Settings -> Apple ID (Your Name) -> iCloud.
Find Mail in the list and activate it. Now you have the option to create a new @icloud.com mail if you have not previously had an @icloud.com mail associated with your Apple ID.
If you want your new email as your Apple ID, then you can read how here:
Using iCloud w/ @yahoo.com address — want @icloud.com
