Hello, we started seeing this issue also today (suddenly). Not sure yet why this suddenly came up

@darkpaw I created FB11844108 and added two crash-reports to it. Hope this help. Thanks, Andy

Hello @darkpaw, we started observing an increase in crashes on October 24th, 2022 - this was the day when iOS16.1 was released. We see few pattern: it's crashing only on iOS16.1 and later it's crashing on already released versions, that worked before without crashes it's crashing not only in our code (where we deserialise JSON via Decodable), but also in 3rd-party-libraries (Lottie (https://github.com/airbnb/lottie-ios/issues/1826), App-Auth (https://github.com/openid/AppAuth-iOS/issues/737)) in all of these crashes we can see either JSONDecoder (via Lottie) or NSJSONReader (via App-Auth), which somehow points to JSON-decoding in such cases Do you know if anything related to that has changed in iOS16.1, which would explain such crashes suddenly? Cheers, Andy

Checking for kDNSServiceErr_PolicyDenied works for us now and we can detect if local network privacy permission has not been granted by the user. I will close this issue. However I have a follow up question regarding the initial value .ready for NWBrowser.State: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/666431

Hi, the system-alert (popup) is displayed by iOS. If you don't see this dialog in your app, I assume that the new "local network permission" is not required for your implementation. NEHotspotConfiguration shows anyways its own dialog before connecting to the SSID. Only if you would send requests to a local-IP on this SSID, the system-alert would show up.

Hi everyone, I just tested with iOS 14.2 Beta and can confirm, that the translated string for NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription (from InfoPlist.strings) is used in the system alert. Now it works like expected. Thanks, Andy
