Since iOS 14 was published at the WWDC 2020 Global Developer Conference, it has also improved a large number of privacy protection functions in the new system. Among them, iOS 14 also imported "tracking" protection, allowing users to decide whether to allow apps to require tracking. In fact, this function is the "restricted ad tracking" of the old iOS version, but the new iOS 14 comprehensively improves this function. In this article, I will tell you what the impact of this iPhone tracking function will have and how to turn it off.
iOS 14 The tracking protection function is enhanced, mainly to allow iPhone users to have more control, and to let users know whether the app they are currently installed is tracked by ads. Most of them usually have tracking behavior, and most of them are free applications. In order to allow apps to serve advertisements more accurately without knowing the user's identity, marketing companies can also serve advertisements more accurately.
Usually, the app or website tracking function is common, and it is not a bad thing. However, some cases of abuse of app tracking occur. The Washington Post reported that 5,400 iPhone applications are using trackers, which will transmit personal data, such as phone numbers and user's current GPS location to third-party marketing companies and research units.

You can learn about these new features first, and it is not too late to wait for subsequent upgrades. If you have idle iPhone devices at hand, it is recommended to upgrade, otherwise you will face more than 14 iOS 14 error disasters.
