Hi there! I understand you’re having trouble with the HND app requesting access to your local network on your iPhone running iOS 18.6.2. To help you get connected, could you let me know if you’ve seen a prompt from the app asking for permission, or are you unable to find or grant this permission in your iPhone settings?

Meanwhile, I can guide you on how to manually allow the HND app access to your local network — this permission is essential for the app to communicate with devices in your home or business network.

Here’s a step-by-step approach:

1. Open your iPhone’s Settings app.

2. Scroll down and tap Privacy & Security (This is where Apple manages app permissions in iOS 14 and later).

3. Tap Local Network.

4. You’ll see a list of apps that have requested local network access. Look for the HND app in this list.

5. Make sure the toggle switch next to HND is turned on (green), granting it permission to access your local network.

6. If you do not see the HND app listed, try opening the app again and performing an action that requires network access — this generally triggers the permission prompt.

7. If you accidentally declined the permission earlier, you can toggle it on here anytime to grant access.

If after enabling access the app still can’t join the local network, please let me know. We can then look into possible network issues like Wi-Fi connection, firewall settings, or restarting the device to refresh its network permissions.

Are you able to find the HND app in your Local Network permissions now?
