I've been using the Smart Remote app for the past half a year on a 2017 Samsung TV, and everything was working fine until about two weeks ago. Now whenever I load the app up on the iPhone, it pops up an Allow/Deny/Close bar on the Samsung TV, and I have to accept it every time in order for the remote app to start working again, so if I close or exit the app, then I have to allow access to it again. I've tried other Samsung TV remote apps, and they've been doing the exact same thing. I tried contacting their developers, but none of them answer. Checked TV's firmware, and it looks to be same as before. Haven't changed anything on my network or in the TV's settings.

Anyone else experiencing something similar?
