Hi, I have set up new phone as samsung galaxy, I am going to transfer my iCloud email to new samsung galaxy. I am not able to
Login iCloud in new samsung galaxy.
Which app can I install in samsung galaxy then set up iCloud email into app? Or how can I set up iCloud email without specific app
Thank you for being response
You can access your email using these settings:
Mail server settings for iCloud email clients - Apple Support
However, as you are using a non-Apple app to access your email or other facilities, you are now required to use an 'app-specific' password in place of your normal iCloud password. In order to do this you need to set up two-factor authentication for your Apple ID, and for this you need to have either a Mac running el Capitan or above, or an iOS device running iOS9 or above.

___________________________________
If you are unable to set up two-factor authentication you should set up 2-step verification and use that to create an app-specific password (see link below) . Then go to https://appleid.apple.com , select 'Password and Security'; click 'Generate an App-Specific Password' and follow the instructions. Once you have the password, copy it and paste it into the password field in the application instead of your usual iCloud password. You should also keep a note of it (though you can generate a new one if required).
Two-step verification for Apple ID - Apple Support
You will need to nominate a 'trusted device': any phone capable of receiving SMS messages. There will be a 2-day wait before you can complete the process.
(A particular caveat (about 2-step only) - you will be issued with a 'Recovery Key' in case you lose your 'trusted device'. Make sure to write this down and keep it in a safe place; if you lose both it and your trusted device you will be permanently locked out of your ID. You'd be surprised at the number of people who've posted here that they've got themselves into just that position.)
