Scroll down and we’regoing to start in privacy. Tap privacy. At the priorities in the screen, sound spot services and scroll down to system assistances. There’s a violet arrow right there. -[ David On Left] What does that planned? – Bad sign already? It meant that an app or service is currently used your locale or has most recently exerted or place. So I’m gonna tap on method services.We’ve got a lot of switchesturned on by default and we wanna turn off most them. – We sure do. Apple pay merchant identification: Off. Sell network search: Off. Is this still gonnasearch for cell networks and connect to them? Yes.- Yes. – Most of these settingslike setting time zone, cadre system probe, networking and wireless. All of these things have todo with adjusting the lane that your iPhones and tennis manipulate when you go to other countries.So unless you’re going to other countries, turn these things off. -[ David On Right] So theones we’re actually gonna recommend leaving on. Let’s switch off that, switch off that, leave on emergency calls and SOS. Leave on, find my iPhone Home Kit?( upbeat music) Turn it off. Location based notifies, suggestions, motion calibration, and length. Turn that off. Networking and wireless: Turn that off. – This talks about ultra wide band. Apple recently released for theiPhone 11 and the iPhone 12, a U1 chip. And that is GPS at thescale of your living room. Their terms , not ours. Meaning, that if I wantto airdrop to somebody, I can target my phone at David’s phone. And then David will be thefirst person that appears on that list. If you’re in a busy power, I can see how that would be helpful because you might get airdrop suggestions with a entire bunch of beings. But if you’re not, turn thisoff and save battery life. – I’ll tap turn off. Setting ages zone, letoffice share my location? – I don’t use it.- Okay. System customizationoff and wifi, calling. Turn that off.Wifi calling will still wreak. – You gotta ask yourself: Are you traveling to a two countries where wifi calling iscalibrated differently? That’s the only reasonto leave these things on. It has nothing to do with the actual wifi calling where you live. – Next, let’s talk aboutsignificant places. Go onward and sounds on that. You’ll insure a roll of places youvisit often that Apple saves use your locale, draining battery life. A little bit odd, Iget a little weirded out when I see this. I didn’t even remember goingto Queensbury, New York. But then I seemed up on the delineate and I was like, “Oh yeah, it was there.” It was kind of weird thatApple recollects And I don’t.- Yeah. – So— Well , nothing remembers if they go to Queensbury New York, David. – So merely tap the switchat the top of the screen to turn off significant locations. And sounds, put off. You wanna clear this history list? Just tap clear biography now on the screen. – Right. – Next let’s tap back inthe upper left hand corner of the screen and scroll down now to product better. Go ahead and turn all these off. – Only if they’re compensate you. If Apple’s paying you tohelp improve their makes, left open on.But for me, they can improvetheir own gosh darn traffic. – Yeah, we are not fortunate enough to be being paid by Apple, – Right? – And, but we’d love to be, you are familiar with. Hey, I’ll turn these on. Improve maps. There’s no way that my iPhone’s point is gonna do sufficient to spawn Apple Maps as good as Google Maps. I’m sorry, it’s just not gonna work– – Well, maybe you are able to turn it on and assisted them improve their maps. – Maybe I’m the reason whytheir maps aren’t as good. I don’t think so.- Perhaps. In the upper left handcorner of the screen we’ll merely tab back. And here are all the mainpage of orientation services.The next thing you wanna do is look through your roster of apps, and look specifically for the word ever. This necessitates an app alwayshas access to your point and it can drain your artillery really fast. For example, I turnedon DraftKings’ location, setting up for a video. I drove back up I8 7. And during that drive DraftKings exercised my location 32 seasons. – Right, that’s incredible. They’re just always checkingto see where you are. – Not definitely. I’m not participate contestswhile I’m driving in my automobile. – That’s good. – So I’ll tap on DraftKings, for example. So they were need your location while. you’re actually applying theapp and recruiting competitions. I’m gonna permutation thattoo while expending the app. – Yeah, pretty much everything from always swapped itto well working the app. You’re going to save battery life.- Yeah, I’ll tap back one more time. One other precedent Iwanna point out is SEFCU. SEFCU always has access to my place. Not definitely, but you want to be wary of maybe apps thataren’t as well developed accessing your location.- Right, and you may not know what SEFCU is, weirdo. SEFCU is David’s bank.- Yes. – Local credit union. Why would they ever needaccess to David’s location? – To how nearby ATM’s. – I guess always, but thatwould be while squandering the app. I have no idea why theyalways need his site. I are of the view that, as David said, it was just a development team that didn’t know what they were doing.- So I’m gonna sound never now. They don’t need my place. – Let’s get into somethingkind of controversial now, personalized ads. And it’s been amazing, the amount of pushback we’ve gotten from peoplewho want to see ads( gang cheer) that are tailored to them. Let’s dive in here.- Yeah, so I’ll tap back upper left-hand corner of the screen. Tap back to privacy, scrolldown now to Apple Advertising. – Personalized ads. If you wanna seeinformation about yourself, you can tap on view adtargeting information. But in my own experience, there really isn’t a lot ofstuff in there, if anything. But they are still targeting me. Personalized ads. Parties picture, “Okay, if I turn this off, I’m gonna see all these reallylow quality shitty ads.” But that’s not necessarily true, because exactly because theycan’t tell that you went to the Airbnb App, and now you’re playing video games and you investigate an advertisement for the same exact place or Amazon, the same products.Doesn’t mean that you’re not gonna do related ads at all. It exactly means that they’re gonna use other targeting criteria. Life if you’re on an iPhone help website, you’re gonna examine adsabout iPhone batteries. Not about Cancun, if youwanted to go to Cancun. So a lot of the time, I are happy to really turn thisoff because I still insure ads, but they’re almost morerelevant to what I’m looking at. And then Airbnb, isn’tlike trying to target me.’ Cause a lot of the timesI go on that website and I merely wanna go someplace, but I don’t really wanna spend money. – Also, if advertisers haveless information about you, then you become less valuable to them, they may actually target you less.- Exactly. You may hear fewer ads. But they won’t tell you that. – Long story short, turnoff personalized ads. And while we expect to get a lot of mentions about that, that’s fine. – Calm down !( populace tattling) – Yeah well, I don’t wanna verify shitty ads. This is not what’s gonna happen. – Next, let’s sound back to privacy in the upper left-handcorner of the screen. One above Apple Advertisingis analytics and improving. – It’s amazing how much datais constantly being send from your iPhone to Apple andother app developers. And what’s funny is that they obstruct building in brand-new swaps here when they get caught doingsomething they shouldn’t. Like the improved Siriand Dictation thing. They were just sendingpeople’s discussions to their servers for analysis.- Yeah.- But now you can opt out of that. So each time you do this, you precisely retain likeimprove Siri and Dictation. The only way that’s gonna happen is if they send audio documents fromyour telephone to their servers. That’s gonna implementation battery life. – So I’ll really tap the switch. Also, turns off datacollection on your Apple Watch. Two for one gratuity there. I’m just gonna startturning off these substitutions. There we go. The last-place thing in privacy: Let’s sound back in the upperleft hand corner of the screen.Scroll the whole way up and sound on tracking. This is the allow apps to request a line, permits apps to apps toask to track your pleasure across other company’s apps and websites. That’s a bit of a mouthful. – You know who doesn’tlike this setting, David? – Facebook. – Facebook is not like the provide because when you are open Facebook App for the first time afteryou update your iPhone, it’s gonna say, “Hey, Facebook would like to track you everywhere you go.” And a cluster of other scary stuff.And then you have to opt into it is currently. It’s not just automaticallyturned on for Facebook. – Nobody’s gonna say yes to that. Nobody’s gonna say yes to that. Yeah, and Facebook wouldlike to see everything about what you’re doing online, so that they can sell you as aproduct to their advertisers. When you examine ads, it is Facebook selling you, selling traffic to advertisers. If you’re not gettin’ a gash ofthat, I would turn this off. – All right, well I’m gonnago ahead and turn that off. That’s it for the privacysection of the establishes app. – But wait, there’s more! – The next thing we’re gonna talk about is in-app ratings and reviews.I’m sure most people watching this video have downloaded an app for the first time, opened it for the first time. And the first thing they picture: Can you write us its consideration of the item? How numerous performs did you yield us? And it’s like, “I don’t know, I haven’t ill-used the app before.” – I know, yeah, how amI supposed to do this? Also, have you ever done it? I’ve done it like twice.I typically say no.- I say no as well. I picture most people do. – Let’s head back to privacy in the upper left-handcorner of the screen, back to settings. One below privacy, you attend App Store. Tap on that and look forin-app ratings and reviews. Help makes and otherusers know what you think by allow apps, ask for product feedback. – Right, turn that switch right off. You can always go andleave a review for an app if you feel so inclined, but now it’s on your terms.You’re not gonna see thatannoying little pop-up. I like to turn this off. – And now in a bestial change of ambiguity.( startling symphonic music) Please give this video a thumbs up and subscribe to our direct. It’s kind of like anin-app ready interview. But— It’s more like a in-video rating and review.- Yes! – Absolutely, please do. – Would help us a lot.- Only 4% of people agree. Please subscribe. – Yes, next thing we’retalking about is push forward. I’m gonna tab back to settings. Upper left hand corner of thescreen, and scroll down here, and sounds on mail.Then sound accountings, andthen sounds retrieve new data. Right now, I have mail set to push. – Right, one of thebiggest battery drainers on iPhone was push on. Your iPhone is constantly questioning: “Is their mail, is their mail, is their mail, ” to the mail server. But with push forward off, your iPhone will choose how often to retrieve the mail from the server. So for most people, every 15 times to check or wheneverthey open the Mail App is more than often enough. – Yeah, so I’ll turn offthe switch next to push at the top of the screen.And then I’ll prepare every 30 hours. I don’t do a lot of emailon my iPhone anyway. The next thing we wanna talk about is background app refresh. This gives apps download new content in the background of your iPhone. So the next time you open your app, it’s a assortment of freshcontent in front of you. – Right, do you open all ofyour apps every single day? I certainly don’t. Do I miss all of thoseapps that I never opened, ever downloadingcontent in the background, which is gonna drain my artillery and likewise use cellular data? I don’t think so. So you might wanna havethis on for one or two apps. Let’s opted. – Yep, I’ll tap back to accounts. Upper left hand corner of the screen. Back to forward, back to themain page of the lays app.We’re gonna scroll up and sounds general. Then we’re going to tabbackground app refresh. First thing to do, tapone background app fresh at the top of the screen. Do you miss cellulardata to be use by apps to download brand-new content inthe background of your iPhone? Probably not.- Nope. – We recommended preferring wifi. I’ll tap back. And here’s a list of allyour apps that can download brand-new material in thebackground of your iPhone? I reflect by default everything all of them.- Yeah, it is all of them. For speciman, Note: Document might be a good one because you want notes to be able to download the observes so thatwhen you open the Notes App, it’s not gonna like haveto load a list of a hundred if you haven’t opened it in a while. But a lot of things likeFacebook could be downloading all sorts of stuff in the background. Instagram epitomes, anything like that, you might wanna time put off. Anything that’s amessenger type of an app, you might wanna leave on ifthat’s a concern for you. – Yeah, so let’s go through this list and you know, find what works for you. – All right.
