Just want to chime in with a "me too" that I am working with a client who would prefer we could remove the banner from the website. If it had an X or some way to dismiss the banner, it would be more palatable, I believe.

I'm currently trying to figure out if this is a bug I can work around or not.

I am seeing these same errors (or very similar ones, definitely "Attempt to map database failed: permission was denied. This attempt will not be retried.") over and over in the logs, when the application opens the Contact Access Picker, and the user initiates a search inside the picker. Notably, the picker is closed, but the completion handler is never called.
