Apple iCloud Private Relay is a security and safety digital service by hiding the user's real IP address by replacing it with a server by Apple that generates a new temporary IP address. iCloud Private Relay or iCloud private relay today is experiencing connection problems.
According to the System Status page by Apple, this personal relay service has been problematic since 2.34 this morning. All services may become slow or the connection may continue to drop. In my review, some websites when opened with Safar felt slower while with other web browsers it was slightly faster. This means that this interrupted service does not affect all applications and websites.
iCloud Private Relay is a feature you receive with every iCloud+ subscription. Imagine it's a VPN by Apple that focuses on hiding your real IP address and replacing it with a temporary one for privacy and security.
