9.2 not jail broken.

I just got a pop up stating: "Excited?" Would like access to Twitter accounts.

Clicking Don't Allow just makes it pop back. I can't dismiss it and I don't want to click ok.

The only way to get rid of it is to hard reset the phone.

Anyone have an idea what app this is?

Is this appearing while you are on your home screen or within an app of some sort?

Pop up notification dialog box. With option to dismiss or ok.

However dismissing doesn't do anything. It just pops up again.

No. I wasn't in safari at the time. I've tried to track what apps were open or what I was doing but there doesn't seem to be any commonality. It still pops up once in a while. A power cycle is the only way to get rid of it.

Can you see it in Settings → Privacy → Twitter?

A screenshot would be helpful.

No. sorry. I never figured out what caused it.

Also, I have iOS twitter off so i don't know how any app could have requested access since twitter isn't set up on my phone. It happened randomly. I hadn't installed any apps prior to the messages.

Not a screen shot from my phone but this is basically what I saw.

[doublepost=1478652243][/doublepost]This just happened on my iPhone 5s, up to date iOS. I was in Messages when it popped up. Had to power cycle phone. I closed Twitter too for now.

Sadly this might be something that will never get figured out.
