“Hide my Email" integration
Hello everyone!
I was wondering if a "Hide my Email" integration was in the works (I've seen a few old threads on the subject but nothing recent).
I guess apple doesn't offer an API to developers...

4 years agoThank you for the suggestion! I agree that an integration with Apple's "Hide My Email" would be pretty groovy. With Fastmail we're taking advantage of their support for an open technology known as JMAP, I'm not sure if there's an equivalent technology/API available from the Apple side but I've forwarded your suggestion to our developers so that they can investigate further.
You can read more about JMAP and how we built our integration with Fastmail here: How and why we built Masked Email with JMAP – an open API standard
And you can read more about masked email addresses in 1Password here: Masked Email
For what it's worth, I've personally used both "Hide my Email" and Fastmail's masked email addresses and I love the fact that I can generate and manage my Fastmail masked email address from any device and any browser, not just Safari and my Apple devices. I'm also able to use a custom domain for masked email addresses with Fastmail which I find very useful. But I definitely understand the convenience of "Hide My Email" being included with iCloud+.
Thank you again for the great idea! 😊
