A Apple announced a few months ago a controversial privacy feature that, while better protecting user data, buys a huge fight with the industry. Without fear, it launched the possibility of not tracking users with iOS 14.5. There was certain fault in this implementation, but iOS 14.5.1 and iPadOS 14.5.1 fix this bug.

The update weighs 114 MB and arrives for all iPhones and iPads compatible with iOS 14 and iPadOS 14. It was released basically because some users who disabled general tracking were no longer able to use the reactivation switch. It simply got stuck. According to Apple, in a note, another problem affected even consumers who were able to use the selector, since after reactivation the pop-up continued not to appear in individual apps.

Chinese developers were particularly revolted with the anti-tracking feature of Apple, so they launched a movement to implement alternative tracking. With the bug now fixed in iOS 14.5.1, they may have been a little more irritated by the temporary unavailability of issuing tracking requests. Under the terms of Apple, Apple makes it clear that anyone caught violating the consumer option will have their app removed from the App Store. Remembering that not even Fortnite managed to be an exception in Tim Cook's tough regiment.

Anti-tracking system is the main novelty of Apple for iOS

iOS 14.5 was a major feature update released in late April. With the arrival of the new version of the operating system, we saw improvements to Face ID working even when the user is wearing a mask, and can now unlock iPhones if they are wearing a Apple Watch. With the update, support for AirTags also arrived, which already have luxurious and expensive accessories available abroad.
