Looking at the app genre, the highest adoption rate of ATT is 'game' (about 20%). Since the second point is 'Utility' (about 6%), you can see that the high adoption rate of game applications is outstanding.



In addition, Appfigures conducted a questionnaire on official Twitter saying, `` Thousands of game apps for iOS already support ATT.Did you see the ATT notification in the app you are using? Of the 173 votes, 50.9% answered “I have not seen it yet”, 23.1% answered “I saw it and allowed it”, and 26% answered “I saw it and refused it”.

In addition, Appfigures is investigating what kind of explanation is given by an app that has already adopted ATT and displays a pop-up notification asking the user for tracking permission. It seems that the document displayed in this notification can be customized.

Each pop-up notification asks, 'Allow us to track your activity across other companies' apps and websites? Your data is used to serve personalized ads.'
