The access is only needed to read your internet connection parameters &#8211; that ensures fast and stable connection when making calls through Yolla.<\/p>\n<p>The popup is shown after you install Yolla on iOS 14 or upgrade your device to iOS 14. This permission is required to make calls through Yolla. Without this permission, the calls cannot go through.<\/p>\n<p>If you have already seen this pop-up but denied access to the local network, you can still provide this access in the iPhone settings. Just open the iPhone settings, scroll down to Yolla and turn on the &#8220;Local network&#8221; slider.<\/p>\n<div><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3115\" style=\"margin-top: 20px;\" src=\"https:\/\/yollacalls.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Settings_popup_EN.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" \/><\/div>\n<p>We are working on receiving network parameters a different way, so this pop-up might disapper in the future.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top: 40px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-weight: bold;\">Traffic source<\/h2>\n<p>The second pop-up will appear in early 2021 and will request your permission to tell us the source that you first downloaded our app from.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s say you saw a Yolla ad on Facebook or in Google Search.
