How do I delete a random private relay hidden email address which was automatically created between Apple and App which I use?

Hello, this is a strange request which I really hope someone can help with as I have spent hours trying to do this.


I want to delete the randomly produced private relay email address which was automatically created when I first signed into an App using “continue with Apple”


This is a different type to the ones which I can create myself (which have three words and can be deactivated by myself), but has a series of random characters in front of the private relay.appleID.com


i.e f4zg5p5n4c@privaterelay.appleid.com


I have checked with the Helpdesk of the App (Poe AI) I am using and they say that this comes from Apple and they cannot help me.


If I cannot do this myself, can anyone please provide details of how I may request this directly from Apple, as numerous calls to Apple support have been fruitless.



I found this on the Apple Developers Website:



To facilitate communication between users and developers, Sign in with Apple gives users the ability to use an anonymous email address. When a user provides such an address to your app, the private relay email service routes all emails between you and the user. A private relay email service sends email to a recipient using an automatically generated email address. This hides the real email address to preserve privacy.


Thanks

Not sure if my issue is understood correctly. The “continue with Apple” sign on is available on many Apps, including TikTok. Poe is an AI App ran by Quora, not a game, and the sign on using “continue with Apple” is just an Apple feature that the App developer at Poe has chosen to use.


Was just looking if there is a way to delete the randomly generated email, which Apple provides to the App, as I don’t seem to be able to do that is settings.

You have asked this question of the app developer, of Apple, and again here. The answers you’ve received and relayed have been consistent, too.


You could request or could pay the app developer to create a custom app that lacks that, or could find a different game (or other app) that meets local requirements.


Nobody here can help you with this issue with this game (or other app).


Your conflicting requirements will remain in conflict.

I am quite offended by the condescending tone of your responses. You seem to have taken it upon yourself to speak for the whole of the Apple Community, which may have deterred others from offering more constructive support or advice, or at very least, allowed me to receive a response which I did not find offensive and condescending from someone who appears to be full of his own self importance.


I will not engage further with you.
