Apple's list of 'Must-Have apps' does not include Facebook, Instagram, and Whats App' and it could be all about privacy-or lack of it.
promoting privacy as a major iPhone feature, the gang in Cupertino might not want to be seen recommending apps owned by a personal data sieve-like Facebook.
When Apple first released iOS 14.5, iPhone users started to receive requests from certain apps giving them two choices. The user could demand that he no longer be tracked by an app for the purpose of receiving online ads, or give permission for that app to continue to track him. In thae case of the latter, the user would expect to continue to receive online ads based on the places he visited online.
It should be noted that Apple also failed to include Netflix and Spotify in the list. Both of those firms have yelled loud and often about Apple's in-app payment policies that require all in-app payments be made through Apple's own platform from which it takes a 15% to 30% cut of in-app revenue. Apple could be using the curation of its"Must-Have Apps" list to get back at some companies that have failed to follow every whim from the tech giant.Get the most important news, reviews and deals in mobile tech delivered straight to your inbox
