Unable to Toggle "Allow Apps to Request to Track" in Privacy Settings

Hi everyone,

I’m having an issue with the Tracking feature in Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking. The option to Allow Apps to Request to Track is greyed out and I cannot toggle it on.

I’ve already tried several methods, including:

1. Signing in and out of my Apple ID.
2. Deleting VPN profiles and resetting all settings.
3. Signing out of my phone, powering it off and on again.
4. Updating to the latest iOS version.

The closest I got to fixing it was when I signed in and out of my Apple ID. The toggle briefly appeared for about 20 seconds, but then it turned grey again and became unchangeable.

I also contacted Apple Support and spent a long time troubleshooting, but unfortunately the issue still remains. I read online that location could affect this setting, so I’ll note that I’m located in Ontario, Canada.

Please see the attached screenshot of what I see in my Tracking settings. Has anyone experienced this before or found a reliable fix? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
