To use the functionality, launch the DuckDuckGo app on Android, go to Settings More from DuckDuckGo, and then activate App Tracking Protection. Tracking is blocked based on a growing and updated list of known trackers, regardless of the user’s selection in the tracking request dialogs often given within applications. The blockage occurs without discernible impact on device speed, which has been enhanced in the newest version of the app (v5.143.1). However, unlike Apple, DuckDuckGo’s method does not rely on app developers’ compliance with user choice.Īccording to DuckDuckGo, Android users have an average of 35 applications installed on their smartphones, resulting in between 1,000 and 2,000 monitoring attempts every day for over 70 tracking organizations.Īs users go about their daily lives using their mobile devices for things like online browsing, playing games, and checking the weather, the App Tracking Protection will ostensibly block any tracking attempts in the background. The feature is comparable to Apple’s ‘App Tracking Transparency.
