The updated version of Safari will push websites to ask permission to the aforementioned sensors. As such, these will be focused on a per-app basis, rather than a per-website basis.
It looks like iOS 12.2 will include a series of privacy features that will also restrict access to the iOS device’s accelerometer and gyroscope sensors.
So instead of every website that uses this data asking permission, you might see a popup saying “Safari requests access.” This is similar to how it already restricts camera and microphone access.
There is some concern from advertisers that this will break AR/VR adds on websites, which utilize the device’s motion and orientation in space. This won’t completely block the ads, but it will require the user’s permission prior to displaying them.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
