"Ask apps not to track" was chosen for all apps visited on iPhone.
The Raxis team tested Unplugged's UP Phone side-by-side with Apple's iPhone 16 Pro and Samsung's Galaxy S25. Over a one-hour testing window, the Raxis team used 33 widely-used apps such as Spotify, Outlook, Snapchat and Expedia with identical actions across all devices.
Comparing against a list of 223,218 known third-party tracking domains, including wildcard domains, Raxis used custom scripts to examine all captured data packets. As each app interaction was performed, Raxis' testers measured every single packet of inbound and outbound data and identified its destination.
Over one hour, UP Phone blocked every single third-party tracker, compared to hundreds of trackers that infiltrated competitor phones.

OFF MEANS OFF
Battery Disconnect
