  • Some iOS 14 users started seeing prompts asking them for permission to be tracked by apps, which is a policy change Apple announced earlier this year.
  • The new privacy feature will roll out early next year, but Apple might be testing the dialog boxes as some users on the iOS 14.4 beta have already started seeing them.
  • Many developers are unhappy with the new policy, especially Facebook.

Apple is following through on its commitment to protecting user privacy by requiring developers to ask users for their permission to track them for advertising purposes across apps and websites owned by other companies. The prompts were expected to start showing up early next year, but some Apple device users spotted the dialog box after installing the first iOS 14.4 beta last week, suggesting that the rollout has already begun.
