App tracking transparency rules
Hi LCoders, sorry if this has been answered before somehow. I'd like to know how the news below are going to affect us (iOS developers)
Apps Must Adhere to App Tracking Transparency Rules and Be Built With iOS 14 SDK Starting April 26

Thanks

Re: App tracking transparency rules
You'll need to build with the correct SDK, but other than that, if your app doesn't track users or contain advertising then I don't see how it would affect you at all.

Re: App tracking transparency rules
Hello.
I do collect email and name for identification and other optional data, like address, sex, age, for better targeting my App.
I also use an external bluetooth device.
So, how do I implement with LC the "App Tracking Transparency" framework?

Re: App tracking transparency rules
That sounds like something the LC team would need to implement, but I don't think it applies to you. The link says:
If you don't share the info with other companies you should be fine.You must use the AppTrackingTransparency framework if your app collects data about end users and shares it with other companies for purposes of tracking across apps and web sites.

Re: App tracking transparency rules
Could be but in our privacy we stated that we eventually share this info with other. So we are stuck and not able to publish an update.
I wrote to apple...may be they allow us just a bug update.
But anyway, anyone that collects advertising (we don't), would need this framework. So like any developer using GPS, or Photos or Contacts.
This could be a big chunk of LC developers, I guess.
Do you think i should write LC about this problem?

Re: App tracking transparency rules
Yes, you could submit a feature request to the QCC and stress that you are blocked without a solution or a workaround.
Another option might be to write a wrapper with LCB if you know anyone who could do that.
