Hello,
i use , at the moment, a gmail address as Apple ID.
I like to change that into a @icloud.com address. I have the idea it is much safer than gmail.com
But is that true? I use Ipad 10.5 pro and a Mac 27” Catalina
Hope that there is an answer on my questions.
Have a nice day.

I have used a gmail address as my Apple ID for years. No issues with security for me.
If you have a non-Apple email address as your Apple ID, you can change that if you change email addresses in the future. If you have an Apple email address, you can't.

Hello Dah*veed,
thank you for your answer. I asked this question because I had the feeling that google knows a lot about me. And maybe Apple mail could be better.
But not changing an Apple ID is a very big disadvantage.
So, thank you and nice weekend to you
