Select the Menu icon (three dots) at the top, and then Settings. Launch the DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser application for Android to get started. Core new features include more information on trackers that applications use, performance improvements, a reduction in tracker exclusions, and the release of the blocklist in a public space. The developers have improved the feature since is launch last year. The latest version of App Tracking Protection does away with the waitlist and makes it available to all users of the app. Main points of criticism back then were the lack of custom list options, that the tracking list was not publicly available, and that some trackers were not blocked but excluded. It worked well for most apps on the device, but I ran into issues loading some. When I reviewed the feature last year, I found the tracking protection feature easy to use. Several applications and services use the same method to block trackers and ads on Android, including Netguard. Traffic flows through the VPN and known trackers are blocked automatically while that happens. It establishes a purely local VPN connection on the device. To summarize its functionality for those who have not heard of it before: App Tracking Protection blocks trackers system-wide on Android using a list of known trackers. App Tracking Protection is still a beta feature, but it is universally available on Android.

Launched with limited access last year, the feature is now available to all users of the DuckDuckGo application on Android.
