Background App Usage
iOS 13 will also limit data collection practices using VoIP apps, which apps like Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp have exploited beyond their intended purpose. The APIs are meant to allow apps that provide phone calls over the internet to listen for calls in the background, but many apps have also been using them to keep their apps running in the background to collect data.

Apple is ending this practice in iOS 13, which will require some social networking apps to be rebuilt.
