Turn on iCloud Private Relay on iPhone
When you subscribe to iCloud+, you can use iCloud Private Relay to help prevent websites and network providers from creating a detailed profile about you.
When iCloud Private Relay is turned on, the traffic leaving your iPhone is encrypted and sent through two separate internet relays. This prevents websites from seeing your IP address and location and network providers from collecting your browsing activity. A website or a network provider won’t simultaneously know both who you are and what websites you visit.
You can turn off iCloud Private Relay at any time. You can turn off the feature completely for iPhone, or just turn it off for a specific Wi-Fi or cellular network.
Note: iCloud Private Relay is currently in beta.
Turn iCloud Private Relay completely on or off for iPhone
Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Private Relay.
