Another tool called private-click management gives advertisers a way to measure when a user clicks an ad inside an app and is taken to a web page, but without revealing data about the individual user.
Although the tools are intended to be used by software developers, Apple added information about them to one of its privacy guides for consumers on Wednesday.
Facebook had said in December that it planned to show the pop-up notification because it did not want Apple iPhone users to lose access to its apps.
