IOS 13 introduced a series of changes related to user privacy. We have an option for & # 39; Sign in with iCloud & # 39; or new location usage permissions by apps. This is old the system also displays alerts that a particular app is using the background. So much so that Apple has had to give an explanation for it.
If you have iOS 13 certainly an app notification appears. The notification indicates that the X app has been using the background for a specific period or period. It also shows a map of the places where the place was given. Problem? Not only does it notify you, it does it many times to the extent that it can be annoyed

It's a question of taking privacy into account
As the Wall Street Journal once said, Some developers are concerned that these types of ads may cause users to stop using the app. of overconfidence. Appropriately as a result Facebook published a few months ago a description of its users.
What does Apple say about it? As mentioned in a statement to the Wall Street Journal, it is a matter of privacy:
Apple did not disclose the business model around knowing the customer's location or location of its device.
In other words, Apple's business model is not based on using data to derive benefits to them. But it's not that they don't want to do it, but hope that the apps used by their customers can't, after all, continue to use their products (iPhone, iPad …). That is why iOS and other Apple ecosystem applications are steadily increasing in terms of user space and privacy.
As a detail, we must remember that this is a notification it usually occurs when the app is constantly reaching the destination. That is, if an app only uses location once or is open, these ads rarely appear. In fact, by default, applications will no longer be able to access location in iOS 13 unless configured from their specific section in Settings.
