New iOS 11.3 feature from Apple that will tell you how much it knows about users

Apple has released an update to the iOS 11.3 operating system, which includes a new feature that allows the personal data of smartphone owners to be made more transparent.

What are you talking about?

Device users will now be informed about what information they need to provide services and applications in order to work more efficiently.

Most likely, many users saw on the device display a new icon for the program in question, but did not pay special attention to it. It will be displayed every time Apple makes a request for a user's personal data, explaining for what purpose it is needed, and how such actions will affect the user's security in general.

When will the warning be seen?

However, despite the usefulness of this innovation, Apple is currently unable to protect users from phishing and malicious applications. The warning will be visible only in certain cases, when, for example, confidential information is needed by applications developed by Apple itself.

Is it the Facebook scandal?

According to the company, testing of this application began even before the well-known scandal related to the leakage of information from the Facebook site and was carried out for several months. By the way, this incident only strengthened Apple's intention to implement such a feature.

According to Bloomberg, Apple Park's headquarters in Cupertino, California intend to change the web interface for managing accounts in Apple ID. It will allow users to upload their information (photos, videos, etc.) and control Apple access to it.
