“Buy From Vendor” pop up when acquiring bounties

Using the iOS companion app v8.0.0, and every time I acquire a bounty, I get a pop up message that says: [quote]Buy From Vendor S38A iOS App Store version (distribution) is requesting permission to do the following: Buy From Vendor Buy items from Vendors. If you approve, this application will be allowed to perform this action for: Uses: 6 Duration: 20 mins Do you approve this application's access to your Destiny account?[/quote] So I press approve, but after 6 bounties or 20 minutes, the pop up comes back.

  • I received a similar message (albeit with a different four digit Vendor code) about ten minutes ago after using the app to pick up Bounties from Banshee and Eido. Being the first time I’ve seen such a message (I only recently started using the app to pick up Bounties) I quit out of the app without accepting or rejecting the request and it did not reappear after reopening the app. That said after this happened I noticed a batch of Updates available on the App Store, including one for the [b]Destiny Companion App[/b] which included in the update description “Acquire Bounties from Apothecary Eido.” I see that you posted this topic prior to the launch of Revenant so it’s safe to assume you did not receive the message as a result of picking up Bounties from Eido, but I wonder if perhaps such a message is triggered when picking up Bounties from a Vendor that has not been [u]fully[/u] integrated with the Companion App. Although I suppose it’s also possible that the message appears when picking up multiple Bounties in quick succession as the iOS store [i]might[/i] view these as a series of rapid “account changes”, which under other circumstances may be considered a red flag that an unauthorized user has gotten access to the account in question and is trying to make changes to prevent future access by the rightful user.
