Excerpt from tvOS, surround-sound AirPods, and more: The other big WWDC announcements https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/06/tvos-surround-sound-airpods-and-more-the-other-big-wwdc-announcements/
First off, Apple will now make apps ask for permission to track you across apps and websites owned by other companies. It will also offer up summaries of how specific apps plan to use your data right in the App Store, so you can consider those angles before you buy or download an app. iOS 14 also shows how an app is using your data even if it's already been installed. Users will be able to choose to show an application only their general location, rather than getting hyper-specific. This could be useful for, say, getting movie times for your town without revealing exactly where your home is. Apple is also expanding Sign In With Apple, the single sign-on tool it introduced last year. One of the key complaints about Sign In With Apple has been that it only works if you're creating a new account with a service; you can't associate your Apple sign-in information with an account you already have. That's changing in iOS 14; you'll be able to use Sign In With Apple even if you created the account in question elsewhere previously. _______________________________________________ Medianews mailing list Medianews@etskywarn.net http://etskywarn.net/mailman/listinfo/medianews_etskywarn.net
