That sounds like an unusual issue. App tracking settings are typically controlled through your device's privacy settings. There might be a few reasons why this is happening:
- App-Specific Issue: Certain apps might have their settings that conflict with the device settings. Check if there's a specific app causing the problem by turning off app tracking for each app individually.
- Apple ID Sync Issue: It's unusual for the Apple ID sign-in to affect app tracking settings directly. However, signing out and signing back into your Apple ID might refresh certain settings or permissions. Try signing out and signing back in again to see if it makes a difference.
- Privacy Restrictions: Your Apple ID settings or restrictions might be affecting app tracking. Go to Settings > Privacy > Tracking and ensure that "Allow Apps to Request to Track" is turned on.
- Contact Apple Support: If none of the above solutions work, it might be worth reaching out to Apple Support. They can provide more specific guidance and troubleshoot the issue further.
Remember to ensure that you're comfortable with the app tracking settings you choose. Your privacy and control over your data are important!
