Yes there's an Apple version
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/airguard-tracking-protection/id1659427454
This will be built-in Google Play for all Android 6+, no need for external app
But then you have to have Google Play installed 🤮🤮
There's an official apple version on Google Play too just search for com.apple.trackerdetect
Isn't it the one app that Apple has published on the Play Store?
They also have Apple Music and 'Move to iOS'
Ah, thank you
Apple has quite a few apps there. Music for one.
That one can only manually scan though
