Hello, AppleHead9989.


I understand that you are encountering a pop-up that is making it difficult to use your iPhone as you usually do. I’m glad you took the time to post and happy to lend a hand.


Let's see if we can enable the permissions directly from Settings. Please navigate, on your iPhone, to Settings > Privacy > Location Services > Camera. From here, you can choose when the Camera app has access to your location. I understand that you may not want this on all the time. In this case, you might go ahead and toggle it on and off to see if it clears the pop-up.


I hope this helps!


Turn Location Services and GPS on or off on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Best Regards.
