From iOS 14.4.2 , I am not getting the local network access system dialogue but the connection seems working.

What type of connection is it, and if you delete the app form the device does this prompt show up?

We are using the NWConnection to make a tcp connection and check the unsatisfactory reason connection?.currentPath?.unsatisfiedReason for  .localNetworkDenied. Even if I delete the app from the device and reinstall, this prompt is not shown and  .localNetworkDenied error is not returned.
Also I checked in Settings -> Privacy -> Local Network (local network access is not allowed for our app) but still not showing any pop-up however, the connections go through and devices in local network are detected.
The prompt was appearing as expected until 14.4.

Are you actually hitting a local network via a local network address? If so, I would open a bug report on this so that this can be evaluated further. Please include a sample if you one available.
