    Wouldn’t this ID change every time the user changes their wallpaper?

      It does. But it also means that if you want to reset the tracking you would need (for every app) to also clear the storage of the app and logging off and log back in with a different account before starting to use the app again

        True, but even without your wallpaper fingerprint, the app is still fingerprinting you and tracking you with cookies.

        So that still always applies, material you just means you need to take the extra step of changing your wallpaper when you clean cache and change account.
