Keeping my iCloud account on my android phone without any other apple devices

I’m going to be switching back to a android phone again and I’m not sure if I can do that but still have all my apple account information on my android device I don’t want to lose my iCloud email address and my Apple Music account if I don’t have to but if I can’t keep my Apple account email with no Apple device then I will just have to go through the whole process of getting a different one from a android app and sending a group email to all the people who have it and hope that they take the time to read it and all the contacts that I will

To use iCloud for Android, you have to go to iCloud.com using any browser and log in using your Apple ID credentials. To use iCloud Mail with an Android mail client, you'll need to create an App-Specific Password:

Sign in to appleid.apple.com.
In the Sign-In and Security section, select App-Specific Passwords.
Select Generate an app-specific password or select the Add button , then follow the steps on your screen.

See Sign in to apps with your Apple ID using app-specific passwords - Apple Support.

Then use the @iCloud.com address you're using and the app-specific password you created to log in. See https://www.androidcentral.com/how-set-your-icloud-email-account-android.

Let us know if you face any issues setting this up!
