Is this Type of consent safe?

I want to set up access to my email on my phone, it shows up that I need to give iOS consent to access my data before I can access my email, do I have to give such consent?

I am a bit hesitate to give permission this time.

The reason:

I have gave the consent to at the time when I set up the new phone, it has been works fine. I have not revoke that consent at anytime. Recently, my phone acting a bit strange, I no longer able to receive email message from the "Mailboxes" that settled up last year; I receive another request to ask for consent to access my account, I am a bit hesitate because it could be a quasi spyware program in my phone to seeking for consent to access the data.

Yes, otherwise your iOS Mail App cannot fetch your e-mail from Microsoft / Outlook.


You use Outlook Mail from Microsoft on your iPhone which runs iOS (Operating System), which is Apple. Of course you need to give permission.
