Sceen overlay disrupting other apps

[John10]

When trying to give Strava permission to use my location or downloading a video I keep getting the message, "Screen overlay detected. To change this permission you first have to turn off the screen overlay from Setting > Apps." I click to go straight there. However l cannot for the life of me find any screen overlay to turn off. I tried a few things then put them back as was when they failed to solve the problem. I would love to use Strava to point out where fly tipping, dumping and general litter are a problem in the St Helens area and where l have litter-picked.🤔

I used this for my Samsung Galaxy 6. It worked l can now use Strava. You get annoying pop-ups saying things like you won' be able to see your messages which is obviously untrue. So thanks for this.
