T-Mobile customers have seen about a new setting in the T-Life app, which appears to give the “un-career” the ability to record your phone screen.
T-mobile must be watching the screen of your phone
Of course, the warning here is that the possibility of recording only affects the time you are using the T-Life app, which uses T-Mobile customers to offer special deals. It has also changed the previous mobile app of T-Mobile, which you can use to pay your bill and manage your account.
For example, it is likely that T-Mobile customers will need to use T-Life at some point. And, if you do, you cannot do anything in the app at risk – when you enter information like credit card number and bank account information.

Posted on an informal T-Mobile Subdit The new screen recording settings on an iPhone were first to report. Since then, the comments have expanded to show that the settings have appeared on several other types of phones, including both iPhone and Android equipment.
Of course, T-Mobile says that the new recording settings are only to help gather information about how customers use the app. However, customers began to notice any official declaration or setting without word from T-Mobiles.
And it is part of the biggest concern here. Surely, it is not new to record what we do in an app. Many apps record information about how we use them in a way or in another way. However, with the rising rise of online cyber security risks, there is a major red flag without telling your customers without pushing for this new setting of T-Mobiles.
How to stop T-Mobile from recording your screen
Fortunately, you have the option to tolerate the new recording settings. To do this, all you have to do is open and navigate the T-Life app manage To the right. From there, tap setting Icon Top to the right (it looks like a gear) and see more Screen Recording tool Under Preferences,
With the closure of the feature, T-Mobile will no longer record your screen when you are using T-Life.
Given that we have seen that Microsoft has continued to remember Windows, it is not surprising to see T-Mobile something similar in its mobile app. Ultimately, we want to know more about how consumers use the app, it is not a bad thing.
However, the way T-Mobile handled the launch of this setting is definitely related. Add that anxiety how that data can be hacked in the future-how can the history stored of T-Mobiles with Detta leaks and hacks-and it is a recipe for disaster.
Not rolled out for every device with the T-Life app installed in the setting. Even after uninstalling and restoring the app, I was not able to show it on any of my devices. However, it appears randomly, as I started the app again before publishing this piece and was able to see the option. I recommend to check your app frequently and shut down the feature if you find it.
