So we can’t use eBay without turning on app tracking? Here’s a thought…. I will NEVER turn on any kind of tracking for Google, they obviously think we need eBay or something. I don’t sell things I only buy them so my wife thanks you for saving my bank account. 🤷🏾♂️

You can still use eBay without app tracking. You can use eBay without the app by using a browser.
Or try signing in to the app without using Google.

As eburtonlab said maybe use a browser. Also unless your phone lives in a faraday pouch you are being tracked. Your PC as well unless you use a VPN and even then..........?

Privacy is an illusion.

I use DuckDuckGo on Android and enable their function which disables tracking by Apps.
Does not seem to interfere with my Ebay app.
It does crash from time to time due to the tricks app designers are added to prevent the blocking, but it blocks thousands of tracking attempts on my phone each day.

Brave is another browser to use. I use hardly any apps so I don't know about interaction with them though.
It does work well on my PC though.

Hi @jaewon75 . I want to reinforce the suggestion @eburtonlab made upthread.
If you sign in with your eBay userid instead of using Google sign in, there will be no tracking alert.
