What is a Private Relay Apple ID Email Address?
If you used your Apple ID to login to Viki, it may have created a Viki account using your Private Relay Apple ID (or "Hide My Email" encrypted email address in the form of abcde12345@privaterelay.appleid.com).
If you are not sure what your Private Relay Apple ID is linked to your Viki account, or what email is linked to this encrypted email address, please follow the steps below to find out.
From your iPhone or iPad
- Open the Settings app
- Tap your name to view your Apple ID settings

- Tap on Viki
- The Private Relay Apple ID Email will be displayed under the Hide My Email section
- Below this section, you can confirm the email address where the Private Relay Apple ID Emails are being forwarded to. Make sure that the toggle button is switched ON if you want to get these emails forwarded to your email address.
