A private Wi-Fi address means your device uses a unique, random MAC address instead of its permanent one when connecting to Wi-Fi. This helps protect your privacy, prevents tracking across networks, and enhances security while browsing or using apps.

A private Wi-Fi address is a unique, randomized MAC address that devices use when connecting to Wi-Fi networks. It helps protect user privacy by preventing network providers or trackers from identifying and following your device across different networks, enhancing security and reducing targeted tracking of online activities.

A private Wi-Fi address is a randomly chosen Apple Mac address used on Wi-Fi to conceal its true ID. It keeps your privacy safe and it becomes difficult for networks to trace you.
