How to use 10 new features in iOS 14.5

Here are the new features in iOS 14.5 and how to use them.

1. Apps will make it harder to track users

iOS 14.5 has one big feature called  App Tracking Transparency  ( ATT ). Accordingly, applications must request permissions before they can track users. Therefore, you have full control over whether or not apps can track you on your iPhone.

Now, the ATT window will pop up when an app wants to access your unique device ID to serve advertisers information. That window will ask if you want to be followed and display the reason. For example, the app wants you to have a better ad experience if tracking is allowed.

Many companies that rely on online advertising say the privacy change on iOS 14.5 will reduce the effectiveness and profitability of targeted ads. Facebook launched a campaign against this change.

2. Unlock iPhone even when you wear a mask

This feature is for iPhone X or later with  Apple Watch Series 3  or later when you use Face ID to unlock while wearing a mask. The required operating system for the  Apple Watch  is the latest watchOS 7.4.

Go to  Settings  >  Face ID & Passcode  > turn on  Unlock with Apple Watch .
