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?
