Heippa, Steemians today i am talking about

iPhone X

or as i call it iPhone 10.
Apple’s Face ID feature, which will let people unlock the iPhone X by simply looking at it, has left some feeling deeply unsettled.

That technology uses a series of sensors and cameras on the front of the phone to save, map and learn its owner's face over time. The company has lauded the new technology as the ‘future of how we unlock iPhones and protect sensitive information’. (But what happens when you have a picture of owner's phone, huh? :D)

Anyways.

Phil Schiller

said that the facial data the iPhone X collects (including Face ID feature savings) is only stored on the device and not a server. However people

They know where you are

Location tracking on smartphones is not a new phenomenon(hope i typed it right). However iPhones automatically collect data on everywhere its users go and how long they spend there.

Apple’s Frequent Locations function is an automatic feature that the company says helps iPhones learn which places are significant to its users. The data is then used to improve functions such as route-planning.

You can see the location data your iPhone has collected on you, and turn it off if you wish, via your iPhone settings. First go to the Privacy tab, then go to Location Services and scroll down to System Services.

Once in there go to Frequent Locations and look in history. There will be a list the places your phone has recorded as significant.

If you find any spell mistakes please let me know
