iOS14 Lan permissions

[+Warwagon MVC]

After installing iOS14, I was trying to use iVMS to view my security camera on my iPhone and I couldn't get it to see the camera. Then I was listening to security now and heard Steve Gibson talking about new feature of 14 which restricts Lan access. When hearing that I thought ... THAT's why it couldn't connect.

 

So, for anyone else having issue with an app accessing stuff on the LAN you need to give the app permission.

 

Settings / Permission / Local Network / then flip the switch next to the app in question. BOOM!  Hope that helps someone else too.

it should pop up and ask you when a device is asking for any kind of local access, did you not get the pop up after upgrading to iOS 14 and launching the app for the first time?
