Get the most out of Apple’s iCloud+ service
How to benefit from the handy privacy features that come with the new and improved iCloud subscription plans
Apple has recently updated and improved its iCloud service with some enhanced privacy features. Now widely referred to as iCloud+, the service comes with every paid-for iCloud subscription plan (unfortunately, you can’t benefit from it if you are still using your 5GB free allocation), and includes features such as Private Relay and Hide My Email to greatly improve your online security. Private Relay is similar to a VPN in that it withholds your IP address and makes your location difficult to track, whereas Hide My Email protects you from email spam by generating a random address when creating new online accounts. Here’s how to utilise both features.
