How do I disable the Hide My Email feature?

I’m hand typing my email a lot more since this feature was added. How do I disable and have my email address available and populate the field every time. I never use “hide my email” and want it removed as an option.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 14

Hi DaSha22,


Thank you for sharing. We would further suggest you check Settings > Safari > AutoFill and for your info, check and see if you have you email in here. If you continue to have an issue, you may need to check with the website and verify this is a compatible feature still, and if so, you can reach out to Apple Support


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Hello DaSha22,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. Make sure that Hide My Email is not active for any addresses from Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Hide My Email as mentioned in Create and manage Hide My Email addresses in Settings on iPhone - Apple Support.


It sounds like you have never used this feature so may not have any addresses to deactivate. If that is the case, you can leave feedback for Apple that you would like the ability to remove the option to use the feature. Send this and any other suggestions from Product Feedback - Apple.


Kind regards.

Correct, I don’t use this feature and have no addresses to deactivate. Many websites ask for my email to log in, download, subscribe, or whatever. When this happens I have to manually type in my email. It used to provide my email to populate the field with one click, now I only see “hide my email”. I will write to product feedback. I can’t be the only one that would like to disable this “feature.” Thanks

How do I disable the Hide My Email feature?
