with a number of additional
measures including:- More choices when
it comes to sharing
your location – you
can choose between:
Allow continuous
location access while
you’re using app, Allow
once and Don’t allow. - You’ll also see a Location
Reminder Alert with
a map showing you
what data the app has
been collecting and an
explanation of why the
app needs that data. - Apps also require your
permission to use
Bluetooth in iOS 13. You
might wonder just why
an app is requesting to use Bluetooth now you have
updated to iOS 13. It might be tracking you using
Bluetooth beacons in shops and other locations. If
you’d rather it wasn’t you can stop this tracking on a
per-app basis. - Same goes for Wi-Fi tracking – apps could track your
location by looking for Wi-Fi networks you’d logged
onto. This tracking is now off by default in iOS 13. - Also off is the ability of apps to see the information
stored in the notes section of your contacts.
