I got a pop up saying: “(null)” is Using Camera Access to Control Connected Cameras. I will attach the screenshot I took. I accidentally clicked ok instead of settings. Does anyone know what this is? I am not sure if it’s an app or someone gaining access to my camera, audio, and files.
iPhone 7, iOS 14
Ok, I think I have cracked it.
So I was doing research on what (null) is and found another Apple support communities thread that was from someone who had had the same issue except with an app. And it turns out that the app hadn’t downloaded/synced properly with the phone so they reinstall and the app and it worked fine. And most of you are saying that you can’t open photos after seeing the message, so my thinking is that it is something to do with the photos app so my thinking is that if someone who had seen the message were to reinstall from the latest iCloud backup or maybe restart the device and that might help. I haven’t seen the message since restarting my iPad so I though it might work on other devices? Let me know if it works.
Cheers.

The same exact thing happened to me just now. When I clicked ‘settings’ nothing happened, it just made the pop up disappear?? I’m really worried about what this means.
Same issue after updating to iOS 14.3!!! Slight concern of settings being vulnerable. Has apple actually answered or just said keep monitoring ie not give an answer!?;(
Same happened to me. I would thank for any feedback.
Same issue. Im on ios 14.0.1. I stick with apple for their privacy and this is very concerning.
