What is gateway@icloud.com?

When I turn on App privacy report it shows that my Mail app was used and then went to gateway@icloud.com like with three other things as well. What is that?

Where can I locate emails generated through Hide My Email? When signing up for a new site my keyboard may suggest me random @icloud.com emails to create a password with so that I can log in. My issue is that I have wrongly purchased a subscription on one of these sites and now I cannot locate where I get emails from, for that email address. directions to find that @icloud.com address on my phone will be much appreciated.

What happens if I click "Stop Using Apple ID" for "Apps Using Apple ID"? Will it delete my account, information, and data from that app or just Apple? For example, I used Apple login for a couple of apps that I am trying to delete my account for. Internally, the apps said they will email me deletion instructions for my account. I gave them the email under the "Hide My Email. This app received ...@privaterelay.appleid.com." However, I have not received any email from those apps. I have "Forward To" my real email turned on. My real email is supposed to receive emails sent to the @privaterelay.appleid.com address, correct? I cannot find any information on what happens if I "Stop Using Apple ID" for these apps. Will my account still exist on those apps or does "stop using Apple ID" delete the accounts for those apps? Has anyone tried or tested this feature yet?

Deleting a private.relay email address Hello, I wondered if anyone knows how to permanently delete a private relay email address which was created when I signed into Poe AI app, using “Continue with Apple” and “Hide my email” I know how use “Stop using Apple ID” to break the link between the app and Apple, but I want the private.relay email address deleted so that is isn’t associated with my Apple ID anymore. Thanks

Hey there Lysando,

While we're unsure of what exactly that is, we wanted to provide a link that discusses the App Privacy Report in more depth, along with showing what to do if an app appears to be accessing your data in a way or at a time that you didn't expect: About App Privacy Report

Nothing so far points towards your Apple ID being compromised, but if you believe otherwise, this link shows the next steps to take: If you think your Apple ID has been compromised

Lastly, we wanted to provide a link if you'd like to submit feedback for Apple to consider about how the App Privacy Report works, like if it should have more details for example: Product Feedback

Cheers!
