Looking for an answer more detailed than just switch to pixel and use graphene or calyx.
What are the recommended changes to use in the Settings App to make Apple more secure and private? Should I just use the Safari browser due to all the browsers being the same as they all use WebKit
I’m looking for suggested changes to staying minimal but increasing privacy and security on iPhone
There is no privacy on an iPhone. The software is controlled by Apple. You basically don’t own your device. All the toggles and different modes are cute, but mean nothing to Apple. They are like the buttons at the pedestrian crossing: you can hit it to make yourself feel good, but they’ll keep doing what they do regardless of you hitting it or not.
It’s not what you want to hear, but it’s the reality of it.
The real response you’re looking for is to use Lockdown Mode. Be warned, it’s the nuclear option of privacy.
