I think you're talking about the "this accessory is not supported by this iphone" prompt, not the "trust this computer?" or "allow this device to access your photos and videos" prompts. The first shows up if your cable can't be verified to be mfi compatible (via a special chip in the cable), and the last two only show up when connecting to a computer.
