App Permission Settings Don't Show Up

There is an App I am trying to use but it needs permission settings from camera, local network, and etc. They do not show up in my app settings and I have checked my privacy settings as well. The app just doesn't show up. I have included photos of what I see and what it should look like.


I have already tried restarting the phone, IOS is 15.5, redownloading the app, resetting network settings, and resetting all settings but not erasing data.


iPhone 8 Plus

Hi 773slxxpy,


If you'd like to enable local network settings for an app, these steps might help.


We'd recommend following all of the steps in If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open. Following the guidance there often resolves issues with apps that are not behaving as expected. While we understand you aren't seeing the option there in Settings, what options you see there are actually controlled by the app, not the iPhone. For example if you look at the UI note that says, "Apps that have requested permission to find and communicate with devices on your local network will appear here." It appears the app itself hasn't requested permission. There's more information about that in If an app would like to connect to devices on your local network.


If the issue remains, you'll want to reach out directly to the app developer for more assistance. They would be the best people to reach out to for help with their product. Here's How to contact an app developer.


We hope that helps with your question and take care!
