NETGEAR is aware of a growing number of phone and online scams. To learn how to stay safe click here.
The latest iOS Orbi app requires Location Data to be able to use it (see attached screenshot). If I click "Continue", it just takes me to the iOS Location Data settings screen. I cannot use the app unless it is enabled - it is not a "diminished experience", but "no experience at all".
This seems unnecessarily invasive - that in order to manage my WiFi, you need to know where I am.

I created a support ticket for this. I agree. I don't see why this is required to use the application.
- I am running into the same issue with the NightHawk app for IOS.
Also agree. I am locked out of managing my network until I tell Netgear where I am? No; location is not needed.
