"wBlock.app" would like to access data from other apps.

I'm getting this prompt every time I launch safari / web apps. Is there anything I can do to have it keep permissions?

Giving the app full disk access stops it.

[dkmar]

Yep, that's an option. The issue might be related to group names.

So far I used “group.com.bluebanana-software.iyf”, which leads to a permission dialog each time the app is started. Now it needs to be “<TeamID>.com.bluebanana-software.iyf”.

Yes this is what you have to do. But this issue will be fixed shortly. v0.2 will be released by the end of the week.

Giving the app full disk access stops it.

But also, don't give a random javascript extension on GitHub complete access to your Mac. That safeguard exists for a reason.

I am sorry that this was an issue in v0.1. As a solo developer, it is hard to catch every single issue, especially in the first ever public beta release. The reason why this wasn't on my radar was because my Mac wasn't throwing me these warnings, since it knew the app was signed on a trusted account.

As I already established, I fixed this issue and the resolution will be reflected in the v0.2 release. Instead of writing directly to a file to update filter lists, I am using AppStorage and UserDefaults, which are airtight and don't require access to the full disk.

If you would like to test the new version without this issue, I have a TestFlight running: https://testflight.apple.com/join/SVpptVb5

For some reason, notarization is taking forever, so the official release on the GitHub is delayed.

Works and no access requests yet. It's perfect thank you!
