New privacy dashboard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Android 12 will feature a privacy dashboard in your settings. It\u2019ll mainly display what apps accessed your location, mic, and camera in the last 24 hours, and how many times.<\/p>\n<p><span>You can also easily review other accessed permissions \u2014 such as storage \u2014 by simply scrolling down further in the dashboard.<\/span>\u00a0Google said you can easily revoke these permissions through the dashboard as well.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter js-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/on2MGNVelJ3iCcWzoB\/giphy.gif\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/on2MGNVelJ3iCcWzoB\/giphy.gif\" srcset=\"\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_More_control_over_camera_and_mic_sensors\"><\/span>2. More control over camera and mic sensors<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The upcoming version of Google\u2019s operating system will also feature iOS style indicators for when an app is using the camera, mic, or both. This helps you keep an eye on apps that might be sneakily using these sensors.<\/p>\n<p><span>Google will also provide killswitches for these pesky apps in the notification shade \u2014 making it super simple to disable their privacy-invading actions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Approximate_location_sharing\"><\/span>3. Approximate location sharing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Another iOS-inspired feature that\u2019s coming to Android 12 is approximate location access. For some apps, such as shopping or weather, you just need to give them a rough location so that they can identify your locality.<\/p>\n<div id=\"1621427107.014200\" class=\"c-virtual_list__item\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"listitem\" aria-expanded=\"false\" data-qa=\"virtual-list-item\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__background p-message_pane_message__message c-message_kit__message\" role=\"document\" data-qa=\"message_container\" data-qa-unprocessed=\"false\" data-qa-placeholder=\"false\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__hover\" role=\"document\" data-qa-hover=\"true\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__actions c-message_kit__actions--above\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__gutter\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__gutter__right\" data-qa=\"message_content\">\n<div class=\"c-message_kit__blocks c-message_kit__blocks--rich_text\">\n<div class=\"c-message__message_blocks c-message__message_blocks--rich_text\">\n<div class=\"p-block_kit_renderer\" data-qa=\"block-kit-renderer\">\n<div class=\"p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper--first\">\n<p>I really like this feature because there\u2019s no need for apps to know your<span>\u00a0<\/span><i data-stringify-type=\"italic\">exact<\/i><span>\u00a0<\/span>location to work properly. This is a great solution to safeguard your privacy without ruining the functionality of apps.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter js-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/8VpCPHrbJPJpVm9Wpg\/giphy.gif\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/8VpCPHrbJPJpVm9Wpg\/giphy.gif\" srcset=\"\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_A_secure_sandbox_for_on-device_machine_learning_functions\"><\/span>4. A secure sandbox for on-device machine learning functions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Android 12 is getting a privacy sandbox, called Private Computer Core, for machine learning stuff such as the Now Playing feature for identifying songs, live captions, and smart replies to notifications.<\/p>\n<p>All of these functions will use on-device data to improve suggestions, and nothing will be sent to Google servers.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_New_password_management_tools\"><\/span>5. New password management tools<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Last but not the least, the password manager used in Chrome and Android is also getting a host of new features. Now, it\u2019ll send you an alert when your credentials are found in a data breach, and even provide a way to quickly change them via Chrome without going through multiple steps.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll also get a password import feature to get your saved details from another password manager, and tighter integration between Android and Chrome.<\/p>\n<p><span>These five new privacy features are a terrific addition to Android 12 \u2014 but there was one glaring omission.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"c-mrkdwn__br\" data-stringify-type=\"paragraph-break\"\/><span>Earlier this month, Apple delivered one of the most talked-about privacy update with a new anti-tracking feature. While reports in February suggested that Google is building\u00a0<\/span>a similar solution with a few caveats<span>, the company made no announcements at the event.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"c-mrkdwn__br\" data-stringify-type=\"paragraph-break\"\/><span>If Google really intends to compete with Apple for the privacy throne, it better add that feature,\u00a0<\/span><i data-stringify-type=\"italic\">fast<\/i><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i>Did you know we have a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>letter all about consumer tech?
