What is the purpose of the Add (+) button in the app settings?

The Add (+) button in the app settings is primarily used to allow or prevent access to connections for an app. When you interact with this button, it typically allows users to manage the permissions and access levels for various applications installed on the device. This might include enabling certain networking capabilities or controlling how the app interacts with other systems and services.

By utilizing the Add (+) button, users can designate which applications can connect to the network or specific Mac features, tailoring their security and privacy settings according to individual preferences. It plays a significant role in ensuring that only trusted applications have access to critical system resources or external networks, aligning with best practices in software management and security.

In contrast, other options involve different functionalities that do not directly relate to the purpose of the Add (+) button. For instance, removing applications from an allowed list, enabling Stealth Mode, or managing location services involves distinct actions and settings that do not specifically pertain to the access management role that the Add (+) button facilitates.
