If you signed up for Flippd using Sign in with Apple and chose to hide your email, Apple creates a unique, randomized email address (like abc123@privaterelay.appleid.com) that forwards messages to your real inbox. Your Flippd account works normally -- there are just a few things to be aware of.

How Hide My Email Works

When you create an account with Sign in with Apple, you get two options:

Share My Email -- Flippd sees your real email address
Hide My Email -- Apple generates a random address like dxr7k9m@privaterelay.appleid.com that forwards to your real inbox

If you chose option 2, Flippd only sees the randomized address. Apple handles the forwarding behind the scenes -- emails from Flippd still reach your real inbox.

What This Means for You

Everything That Works Normally

Signing in and out of Flippd
Syncing data across all your devices
All app features and functionality
Receiving emails from Flippd (they forward to your real inbox)

Things to Be Aware Of

Support requests: When you contact support, we see your private relay email. If you need us to look up your account, mention that you use Hide My Email so we can find you.
Account recovery: If you need to recover your account, you'll need access to your Apple ID. We can't send a password reset to a private relay address directly.
Multiple devices: Sign in with the same Apple ID on all devices to keep your account synced. The private relay email is tied to your Apple ID, not a specific device.

How to Check Your Email Setting

Open Settings on your iPhone or iPad
Tap your name at the top (Apple ID)
Tap Sign-In & Security
Tap Hide My Email
You'll see all apps where you're using a private address, including Flippd

Can I Switch to My Real Email?

You can't change the email on an existing Sign in with Apple account within Flippd. However, you can:

Check that forwarding is enabled (see above)
Contact support if you need help identifying your account

Forwarding Not Working?

If you're not receiving emails from Flippd:

Go to Settings > Apple ID > Hide My Email
Find Flippd in the list
Make sure forwarding is turned on
Check that your forwarding email address is correct

If forwarding is off, emails from Flippd are silently dropped and never reach you.

Good to Know

Hide My Email is an Apple feature, not a Flippd feature -- we can't control or change it
Your private relay address is unique to Flippd. Other apps get different addresses
If you delete and recreate your Flippd account with the same Apple ID, you'll get the same private relay address
This feature requires an iCloud+ subscription or is included when signing in with Apple
