- mcculley 4y agoWhere do you see this in iOS? The Settings app has many permissions for applications, but no "Internet" permission.
- azinman2 4y agoYou can turn off cellular data access to an app; not quite whole internet as this WiFi will still work. But it’s half the problem.
- mcculley 4y agoI am aware of that option. It is on the screen I just described. That is really just for saving bandwidth where it is expensive. It is in no way intended as a security measure.
- LeoPanthera 4y agoIt does not ask for internet access, it asks for access to other devices on the LAN. Not the same thing.
- Nextgrid 4y agoYou can disable app's cellular data access, but that's it, at least on Western phones. Ironically, phones for the Chinese market actually expand that setting and also allow to block Wi-Fi access.
- netheril96 4y agoAs a Chinese user, this is the first time I heard that blocking WiFi access on iOS is China only. How confused I was when reading the comment above you, given I'm already capable of blocking network access for any iOS App.
