Apple recently released iOS 14.5 to the public, and it brings a lot of new features. You can unlock your iPhone with Face ID with a mask on, select a default music app, and, most importantly, app tracking prevention to prevent apps from tracking you on your iPhone/ iPad. So if you are tired of apps like Facebook trying to track all your activity over the internet and across apps and services, here is how to stop apps from tracking you in iOS 14.5.
It is fairly well known that most apps on your iPhone are trying to track you and learn what you like as much as they can. However, Apple is trying to cut down this tracking and give at least some power to the user to decide which apps are allowed to track them and which aren’t.

How to Prevent Specific Apps from Tracking You
If you have previously allowed an app to track you, but you no longer want it to do that anymore, you can turn off tracking permissions on a per-app basis. Follow the steps below to learn how to do that:
- Go to Settings -> Privacy -> Tracking.
In order to prevent apps from even asking you for your permission to track your activities, follow the steps below.
- Here, you will see an option that says ‘Allow Apps to Request to Track’. Disable this toggle to stop apps from tracking your activity across apps on your iPhone.
