Apple rejecting build due to policy

[bhaskardabhi]

I am using this repository for displaying Web view in my application. Everything goes fine but Apple's policy rejecting my build. It gives the following error:
I am getting the following error whenever I am trying to release my app for testing for ios:

ITMS-90809: Deprecated API Usage - Apple will stop accepting submissions of apps that use UIWebView APIs. See https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiwebview for more information.

I searched through the entire project and didn't find any reference to UIWebView.

Following are versions of the library that I am using:

"react": "16.8.3",
"react-native": "0.59.8",
"react-native-inappbrowser-reborn": "^2.0.4",

Did you guys face the same issue? Or the issue is with something else but not this library?

This library is using SafariServices/AuthenticationServices instead of WebView, for more details check these links:

• https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices?language=objc
• https://developer.apple.com/documentation/authenticationservices?language=objc

Check if you are you using WebView component of RN 👍

I have just got the same email from apple. We didn't get these emails earlier, and we only display the webview in our app using react-native-inappbrowser-reborn :/ @bhaskardabhi let me know if you find a solution!

[jdnichollsc]

You can say that to Apple and paste the above links, let me know 👍

Also, the correct word here is system browser, not webview... so take care of this because Apple is Apple ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

did you guys find any solution?

[mptorz]

Yea. We just added this to the podfile

post_install do |installer|
  react_project = Xcodeproj::Project.open("../node_modules/react-native/React/React.xcodeproj")
  react_project.main_group["React/Views"].files.each do |file|
    if file.path.match(/^RCTWebView/)
      file.remove_from_project
    end
  end
  react_project.save
end
