Recently, you might have received a notification in your game about tracking and personalizing your experience. In this article, we’ll offer answers to your common questions about this feature.
Why did I get this notification?
In iOS14, Apple introduced the “App Tracking Transparency” feature to iOS devices.
This feature means that while using certain apps, you’ll see a pop-up that asks whether you would like to "Allow Tracking" or "Ask App Not to Track."
There are two times when you might see this pop-up:
- If you attempt to log in via Facebook or Google
- If you are about to see a personalized ad
I want to change my response – can I do that?
You can always change your response through your device settings – here’s how:
- Open the “Settings” app on your device.
- Choose the “Privacy” option from this list.
- Choose “Tracking” from this list.
- Here, you’ll be able to choose your tracking preferences on a per-app basis.
- Toggle the setting to allow tracking for your chosen game.
- Please force close and then re-open your game so that these changes can take effect.
Here’s what that looks like visually:
Should I allow tracking?
There are two main reasons that we recommend our players allow tracking in their games:
- We want to make sure that all of our players have a fun and safe experience in our games. We use tracking to make sure that our players see only targeted ads that are relevant and personalized to them.
- Our systems use tracking to save your progress with external platforms like Facebook. If you would like to reject tracking, you can still use Facebook to log in. Alternatively, you can play with a King account (here’s a guide on how to create a King account).
