🚨🚨 5/3 Update: Good news! 14.5.1 is out and should fix the bugs (grayed-out icon and prompts not showing) 9to5mac.com/2021/05/03/ios-14-5-1-release-changes/ 🚨🚨 4/26 update: iOS 14.5 is now available! - TGIF! Hope you all are having a great week! I'm excited for iOS 14.5 to FINALLY be released. What are your thoughts on App Tracking Transparency? Lmk if you enjoyed this video down below.
I think if you leave "Allow Apps to Request To Track" off, they are automatically blocked from being able to access your advertising ID - so if you want to specifically allow apps to give you ads you can leave it on, or if you dont want any to, just leave it off.
Can someone here help me out. I uninstalled Whatsapp many months ago when it hit the news that they were now going to collect all kinds of private data because of Facebook. I live in South America and everyone is literally on Whatsapp. My question is, as an iPhone user. Now that Apple implemented data tracking and opting out of facebooks data splurging. Can I install Whatsapp again without compromising my personal data? Can I opt out of it getting any of my data like contacts, media, etc?
Hey there! Great questions. App Tracking Transparency rules may protect against tracking, but this doesn’t cut off a developer’s access to your data. Apple has other controls that allow you to fine-tune some of these settings per-app. For instance, you can restrict WhatsApp access to only a subset of pictures in your photo library, as opposed to the whole thing. There are similar settings for location data and contacts as well. This article covers these kind of settings in greater detail specific to WhatsApp. Hope this helps! www.consumerreports.org/privacy/how-to-use-whatsapp-privacy-settings/
Hi again, I recently learnt that in case I acquire a user from my website to my iOS app (without using advertisers like Meta) than I still can track "everything". Is that true? Next question: is there some kind of 24/48/72 hours window in which I can trackin every action from the useres (regardless of the marketing channel the user used)?
How am I going to enable the app tracking transparency, I just recently updated my Ios to 14.5 after that I went to settings >> Privacy>> Turn on the app tracking transparency but its not working, whenever that I am using my app, there is no pop up message about the tracking transparency huhu
You’re all good! Once developers who have tracking update their apps next, you should start to see the pop up here and there. Might take a couple weeks or so depending on which apps you use.
@@OneTechMind I see, this is exciting to every iPhone users there, Thank you for the information, hopefully in the next few days I will see the pop up message ☺️
@@OneTechMind that’s wrong and obviously not the solution to the problem. My husband and I have the same app, we both have the notifications toggled on, he got a tracking notification, I don’t. There seems to be some other problems with these tracking feature.
@@OneTechMind na I don’t think so, as all apps were forcibly updated by Apple and old apps, which hadn’t updates since months are already blocked. This seems to be a problem with the feature it self as we also have the problem with some people who see the grey out toggle button.
You may not do it consciously but subconsciously it has a stronger play and more believable because you think you are not affected but it has actually harmed you..
Sooo... If you turn the "request " off... they don't "request" permission anymore? and they just track you? Because ive seen you tube videos saying the opposite.... If you turn this function on, it forces the app to ask you permission to track? Ive yet to see a clear and definite explanation of this.
If you deny permission, the app and developer is supposed to take that decision into account and not track you. Some have been caught still tracking despite this. It’s not a perfect system, but it’s a good first step.
I messed up, when an app asked “ would you like app tracking” i clicked deny not knowing of this but I would like to turn it on for the app, how do I undo it, and ALLOW THE APP TO TRACK ME, help me.
Very good video and relevant content. I think though that your analysis is not fully correct. Apple doesn't have their core business model revolving around digital advertising, thus it is easy for them to implement a feature like ATT. And conveniently enough, once it erodes part of the market share for some of the big players in the digital ads space, all of a sudden now Apple is venturing more into this same space. It is an understandable competitive move, and it is not for me to judge whether it is legal or not. All I am saying is that Apple is doing its own interests, again understandably so, and they are rebranding a convenient competitive position and general social and political landscape, to expand their ads market
Craig Federighi from Apple explains it in this WSJ interview at the 2:30 mark. It’s because App Tracking Transparency is a policy measure, versus actual system-level detection of tracking functionality. www.wsj.com/articles/ios-14-5-a-guide-to-apples-new-app-tracking-controls-11619457425
@@OneTechMind Hey, thanks for responding! Yes, I did update it to iOS 14.5.1. It’s still grey don’t know why🤷♂️Perhaps I should wait for another update…
@@phagusandjiet4872 Huh, that’s strange. Only other thing I can think of is: if you are under 18 (according to birthdate on your Apple ID), the toggle is automatically greyed out and tracking is blocked by default.
Hey there, thank you for watching! Apple will enforce the new rules upon public release of iOS 14.5 this week, so you should see a bunch of app updates shortly after including the ATT pop up for any that want to track you.
@@OneTechMind I dont think it’s a app update problem. See,s to be an tracking feature but itself on some iPhones. As my husband has the same app like I have, he got a notification, I don’t =(
Thank you I appreciate how informative your information is it allows me to understand important information and make discussions base on what I want to happen
You’re welcome! I’m glad you feel that way. That is a big goal of mine - to help others make the best decisions for their own needs. Thanks for the feedback!
I already installed 14.5 I toggled on the Allow Apps to Request to Track but there are no apps listed. Also, no popup for the request to allow or not to allow. Lastly, the download update center is still the same as 14.4
You’re all good! Once developers who have tracking update their apps next, you should start to see the pop up here and there. Might take a couple weeks or so.
Same here!! I have for expample the NBA app on my iPhone, my husband has the same app. We both have it toggled on too! My husband got a tracking notification I don’t. So what’s the problem with that? It obviously doesn’t work flawlessly. ☹️
Thanks so much! I was taken by total surprise that TH-cam showed my videos some love, and in turn awesome folks such as yourself. Very grateful for your support!
Ikr? There are actually ways to mitigate ads for all your devices while on your home Wi-Fi. Google “Pi-hole”. It takes a little technical doing and a small investment in $, but nothing terribly complicated!
@@OneTechMind That's the problem, not everyone is technically inclined to do so. We should not have to be and this data gathering practice at our expense should have never been allowed in the first place.
@@dustoff499 I understand where you’re coming from and agree that it’s unreasonable for everyone to spin up a Pi Hole server just to block ads. However, it’s likely going to take government regulation and legislation to get us to a point where privacy and security standards are actively enforced across the web. Until then, things like App Tracking Transparency and Pi Hole give us some options.
Right? The more I think about it, the more I can’t imagine opting in to being tracked across the Internet. Just straight up creepy. Thanks for rolling through!
I wish the tracking would work on my iPhone. =( I have the notifications on but none of the apps I have, have asked to track. Friends of mine have the same apps like the NBA app, and they got a tracking notification. ☹️🤔
@@OneTechMind your welcome! I started making tutorial videos for my app recently and had to learn how hard making high quality videos is. Appreciating good content a lot more since then 😅

Turning on "Allow apps to request to Track" only to deny them when requested!
😂 Tapping that denial button each time is so satisfying!
@ghost robles 😂
I LOVE doing that to apps, too!😂
Ok youtube do your thing and spread this video to everyone. I command you
Haha, I think your plea is working. Thank you for your support!
I think if you leave "Allow Apps to Request To Track" off, they are automatically blocked from being able to access your advertising ID - so if you want to specifically allow apps to give you ads you can leave it on, or if you dont want any to, just leave it off.
Yes, this is true too. Thank you for pointing it out!
OFF is the correct answer.
Android/ Samsung users dying for better tracking for better advertisements on their Instagram and Facebook.. LOL
No, they don’t know me at all, I finds these pop-ups ads annoying and distracting from what I really want to do.
Honestly, these videos are great. Keep it up , no bull just straight to the point. Plus points for the tshirt also!
Thank you so much! I'm very much anti-BS, so I'm happy that is resonating. 🤣 Always happy to meet another Rush fan as well!
Apple: Tell me, do you bleed?
Facebook: Your mom’s name is M̶a̶r̶t̶h̶a̶ Money..
Bully Apple: I miss the part that was my problem.

@@OneTechMind Dude, you are awesome. Thank you very much.
If you’re a minor like me, Apple automatically disables app tracking abilities… nice.
does android have something like this? I want to stop giving my data to a lot of apps.
If it makes Zuck sad emoji, it makes me happy emoji. LOLz

Next question: is there some kind of 24/48/72 hours window in which I can trackin every action from the useres (regardless of the marketing channel the user used)?
I literally had an app that tried to force itself to track. I deleted the app. It had one option to hit allow them to track.
Whoa, which app? That is definitely not cool and against the rules.
After updating, no message like that pop up?
06:18 - Apps that support tracking may still need to be updated to support the new rules, so you may not see the pop up for a couple weeks or so.

Great video, but saying "AT&T" is extremely confusing as I thought you were talking about a phone carrier update. Just say tracking.

What should i do i clicked allow to trackk pls helpppp
Hey there. No problem. Just go into Settings > Privacy > Tracking and turn of the toggle for each app you want to deny.
Why does it say “Ask app not to track”. Why not “Don’t allow tracking “? Sounds to me that they can still track you if they want to.
