Apple ID Email confusion

Help please!

I have changed emails and updated my Apple ID email.

My ID is still showing my old email.

Do I need to sign out of my current ID and re-sign back in with my new email address?

If I do this, what impact will it have on other settings/data on my phone?

Thank you for your time and help,

Mike

If you changed the email address and didn't create a new ID, nothing should be affected. If you were syncing data to iCloud, you may have to wait for the data to sync again.
