For those who have iPad/iPhone ???
I recently downloaded and installed iOS 14.0.1- the bug fix for the last update. We were having some of the difficulties with 14 noted in articles we read online (difficulties with WiFi and Bluetooth connection, rapid battery depletion, but our email and other items didn’t reset (thank goodness, that would’ve been a nightmare). However, on most of my apps I’ve been getting a pop-up asking something that is very disconcerting:
“(App title or developer) would like to find and connect to devices on your local network. This app will be able to discover and connect to devices on the networks you use.”
Call me paranoid, but I can see no positive purpose here, and I feel sorry for folks with kids who click “ok” to any pop-up because it interrupted their game-play. I can’t even begin to guess who thought this was a good idea? Anyone else notice this recently?

I had one of those messages for my garage door opener. I ignored/cleared it and the opener app still works fine. They are just trying to "help" us (dripping with sarcasm)

Yeah, I just keep hitting the “Don’t Allow” button, but still have disturbing visions:
-printer spewing garbage
-DVR recording entire content of guide
-thermostat up and down
-TV on and off
-PC starting up on its own
Or, in your case, garage door opening/closing all night!
