Discord app tracking users across iOS installs

1 points by brie22 11mo ago ↗ HN

Had to uninstall/reinstall the iOS Discord app today, due to it being unresponsive. After reinstallation - all my servers/chats were back in place, as if nothing had happened. (IDK if Discord had previously asked about tracking across apps, but I categorically click Ask App Not to Track whenever that dialog appears.)

Aren't those all tied to your account, and saved in "the cloud"?

If Apple thinks it's okay then there's probably nothing to worry about.

That's almost certainly because your account settings are synced to cloud storage, not due to tracking.
