Legit or fake pop-up?

My iPhone has been behaving erratically and I just received a pop-up after trying to update all my apps in the app store. I clicked continue but I'm wondering if it is legitimate. I've attached a photo.

It is a feature and you can check at Settings > App Store. You do not have to worry about a fake pop up giving permission to something you do not want. If the App attempts to change a setting, use camera, use microphone, or access your location you will always get the System message asking for your permission. The message you are seeing is just a description of a new feature that started in iOS 16.1/
