Hey everyone. I’m looking for thoughts on the best privacy setup for iOS devices. I know opinions will differ, but I’d like to hear what’s working for everyone. Thanks!

I used The New Oil’s guide. It’s pretty good, one of the more complete guides I’ve seen.

First of all turn all Location Settings OFF, besides “SOS” and “Find My”. Also turn off “Then don’t install apps like Facebook, instagram, TikTok, X.

You may get improved privacy but its iOS. I guess apple location tracking will go on. You dont have headphone jack so you need bluetooth, which is used for tracking and thats always turning on again automatically unless you disable it completely in the settings.
