I’ve been mindful about limiting the number of apps I download to my iPhone and other iOS devices. I was wondering what should one look for when deciding to download an app in terms of privacy? Is it just as simple as paying attention to the “data collected about you” section in the App Store? Or is there something else you should pay attention to? Some list that they don’t collect anything about you - is that generally trustworthy and safe? And others list they collect data. At what point will you not download an app? I am over apps collecting more info than they need from you.
