When a tracking parameter is detected while browsing or copying a link, Safari removes the identifying parts of the URL while keeping the rest intact.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">The links will still function properly, but won\u2019t contain unique identifiers, said MacRumors. This new feature is called Advanced Tracking and Fingerprinting Protection. It works not only in Safari but also in the Messages and Mail apps. You can even enable it for regular browsing in Safari.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Heres_How\"><\/span>Here\u2019s How<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">&#8211; On your iPhone, go to Settings, tap on Safari, then select Advanced and choose Advanced Tracking and Fingerprinting Protection.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">&#8211; You can set it to \u201cAll Browsing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">&#8211; If you prefer not to use this feature, you can also turn it off in the same menu.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Please note that iOS 17 will be released later this year, and are currently available in beta for users with an Apple developer account. So, regular iPhone users have to wait for the official rollout of the latest iOS later this year to use this feature.<\/p>\n<p><nonfly class=\"article_mad\" adunit=\"NW18_ENG_Desktop\/NW18_ENG_Tech\/NW18_ENG_Tech_AS\/NW18_ENG_TECH_AS_ROS_MID_728\" slotid=\"nw18-dynamic-div-8107585_8_13\" id=\"new_ad_6\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">According to MacRumors, Apple showcased an example of a URL before and after the tracking parameters are removed during a WWDC 2023 developer video session. The initial URL contains a specific \u201cclick_id&#8221; parameter, which advertisers can utilize to track a user\u2019s actions on various websites.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">However, to safeguard user privacy, Safari automatically eliminates this parameter from the URL.<\/p>\n<p><videocarousel\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">Apple has also added a Screen Distance feature on iOS 17. This feature can alert you when you hold an iPhone too close to your eyes for an extended period.<\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\">The opt-in feature is designed to help lower the risk of nearsightedness in children by encouraging healthy viewing habits and can help reduce eye strain overall. Screen Distance can be turned on in the Settings app under Screen Time  &gt;  Screen Distance, and is available on all iPhone models with Face ID.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-1647035624 authorBox21 article_author\">\n<div class=\"jsx-1647035624 author_box\">\n<div class=\"author_box_inner\">\n<div class=\"img_box1 author_img\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2023\/01\/bharat.jpeg?impolicy=website&amp;width=70&amp;height=70\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"text1 author_content\"><a class=\"smalldesc1 author_name\" href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/bharat-upadhyay.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>Bharat Upadhyay<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<div>Bharat Upadhyay, Senior Sub-Editor at News18 Tech, writes about technology and consumer gadgets.
