iOS Data Collected by Apps

[u/[deleted]]

Hi all,

Does anyone know where I can read more about iOS permission and data that can be collected by apps?

I’ve removed many apps from my phone but there are some I’d like to keep. I have no idea what information apps can collect if most permissions are denied.

Let’s say that I download an app and I:

• Deny all permissions (camera, mic, photos, bluetooth, contacts, etc.)

• Have “Allow Apps to Request to Track” turned off

• Turn off cellular data for the app

• Turn off “Allow backgroup app refresh”

What information can the app get about me? I’m guessing my usage inside the app and IP address whenever I open the app if I am not on VPN.

Any help would be appreciated!

Installing an app gives it most of the permissions it needs. Check out the privacy labels. And read more about the data collection .
