Apple offers many different ways to protect your privacy when you use your iPhone or iPad, but iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 add even more features designed to keep you safe. You can hide your email address, hide internet activity, check app permissions, even apps like https://apps.apple.com/us/app/call-recorder-icall/id1447098963 that require access to work directly, check non-secure passwords, and more. To use the latest features, make sure you are using the latest version of your operating system. Go to Settings General Software Update. You will be notified that your software has been updated or prompted to install the latest update. Once that's done, here's how you can use these tools.
Protect your email activity
Companies and advertisers who send you emails may receive certain information about your activity in the Mail application. They can find out if and when you read a particular email, and even track your location. The iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 update includes the Protect Mail Activity security feature that can prevent this. Enable it in Settings Mail Privacy and then turn on the Protect email activity switch. If enabled, your device's IP address will be hidden to mask your location. All remote content is downloaded privately in the background so it cannot be used for monitoring.
Hide Your Email
Hide My Email allows you to sign up for apps and websites with a random email account to anonymize your identity and reduce the amount of spam sent to your real email address. To use this feature, you must have iOS 15 or iPadOS 15 and sign up for a paid iCloud subscription.
Go to Settings [your name] iCloud Hide My Email to create a new address or use random addresses you may have already used with Apple's older Sign in with Apple feature. The next time you need to create an account to access a website or fill out an online form, use a random address instead. All emails created with this account will be forwarded to your real email address, but you can always deactivate the anonymous address if you start receiving spam. Return to the Hide My Email page, select a random address, and tap Ban Email Address to disable it and keep your inbox free of spam.
Hide your IP address with iCloud Private Relay
iCloud Private Relay replaces your real IP address with your public domain address as a way to hide your specific location. Because Internet traffic is sent through two separate relays, no entity, including Apple, can see or track your Internet activity.
The feature is only available to iCloud subscribers using the Safari browser. To turn on iCloud Private Relay, go to Settings [your name] iCloud Private Relay (beta), then turn on the Private Relay (beta) switch. Tap IP address location if you want the proxy to use your general location instead of your exact location, or even a more general location derived from your country and time zone.
