If your Apple ID has been recently changed to a different eMail address:

Apple's archived article:

What to do after you change your Apple ID or password - Apple Support

says:

"If you’re using iOS 10.3 or later, go to Settings > [your

name] > iTunes & App Store. If you’re using iOS 10.2 or earlier,

go to Settings > iTunes & App Store.


If you're signed out, enter your updated Apple ID and password.

If you're signed in with your previous Apple ID, tap your Apple ID,

then tap Sign Out. Then enter your updated Apple ID and password".

Your Apple ID is the account you use to access Apple services like the App Store, Apple Music, iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, and more. It includes the email address and password you use to sign in as well as the contact, payment, and security details you use across Apple services.

If needed:

You can log-in to your Apple ID account online, and update your details there:

If you no longer use the email address that's associated with your Apple ID, (includes App Store and more)

you can change it ... Apple support's article (link below) can guide you:
