We&#8217;ve reached out to Apple for more information and will update this post with any additional details we receive.<\/p>\n<p>These permissions alerts in Sequoia will pop up weekly, as well as the first time a relevant app is opened after a reboot. This security feature will be triggered by both third-party apps focused on screen recording and general programs that have screen-sharing capabilities, such as Zoom, Slack or Discord.<\/p>\n<p>This feature might remind you of the User Account Controls from the Windows Vista days. We haven&#8217;t run into this permissions issue in our time with the beta version of macOS Sequoia, so it&#8217;s hard to say if the Apple version will be quite as infuriating as the Microsoft pop-ups.<\/p>\n<p>macOS Sequoia does bring other useful updates to the computing experience.
