It doesn’t offer specific feature that for example Microsoft 365 offers. Its just that you can use custom domain name with your iCloud Mail account (if you use it).
That‘s not straight forward enough for most people, but then again it‘s also not widely communicated as a feature available.
Did you receive the instructions by email as Apple said? I am still waiting on this email because it seems that there’s something in my DNS settings that is not working, I can’t complete step 4.
Maybe this will help?
I did not get the instructions by mail but managed to set up. My only issue is that I was able to set up the email addresses I use, however it would not let me set up the family member emails (on same domain) as it said "These are used in another Apple ID"
No worries. Not a lot of info on Icloud+ and the "help" section does not include these features
I had all DNS settings visible in the prompt.
That‘s how domains work. You prove ownership via DNS setups. Loads of domain services or host providers require you to add arbitrary TXT entries for easy verification.
Yes but @WildSky was saying it is funny they even allow apple.com to be entered. They easily could have made that an invalid entry.
Exactly, you got what I was saying. I tried a few other domains which were shown as invalid right away.
