With iOS 14.5, Apple is enforcing their requirement for apps to ask for your permission to track your usage for targeted ads. Apple calls this App Tracking Transparency or ATT for short. Now Facebook and Instagram are trying to scare users into allowing App Tracking by saying it keeps Facebook free of charge. THIS IS SIMPLY A SCARE TACTIC. Rest assured Facebook will continue to make money off of ads whether you allow app tracking or not. You do not have to let Facebook or Instagram track you to keep from paying for it. Facebook is a free service, period. Do not let Facebook or Instagram bully you into giving up your privacy.

This article from MacRumors goes into more detail on App Tracking Transparency and what Facebook is attempting to do.

COVID-19 Update

Grove Training Solutions continues to be closed for COVID-19 safety issues. I have not been doing any sessions due to the Covid-19 virus, but I am tentatively looking at resuming operations June 1. I will reevaluate the situation closer to this date to determine if this date needs to be pushed further out.

Thank you for your patience during this difficult time.

As I’m sure you are aware, the Coronavirus responsible for COVID-19 is sweeping the globe and affecting many people. Since the service I provide puts me into direct contact with many people and their Apple equipment, out of an abundance of caution and for the safety of my clients and myself, I have decided to postpone any further training sessions until April 1. At that time, I will reevaluate the situation and may possibly extend this postponement based on the information available at that time.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this trying time. Please be safe, take care, and wash your hands!
