iOS Deprecated API Usage Warning

See original GitHub issue

Just submitted my app to TestFlight and got an email with the error:

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 was wondering if all the code related to UIWebView will have to be removed and only keep WKWebView.

It was just a warning, the build ended up being available on TestFlight, but I think this is something that will have to be addressed at some point.

If you are using useWebKit={true}, that is to say, you are using WKWebView not UIWebView at all. Then you can do the following to solve the problem – Deprecated API Usage.

1. Remove Libraries/RNCWebView.xcodeproj/RNCUIWebView.h、RNCUIWebView.m、RNCUIWebViewManager.h、RNCUIWebViewManager.m 2. Remove Libraries/React.xcodeproj/React/Views/RCTWebView.h、RCTWebView.m、RCTWebViewManager.h、RCTWebViewManager.m

Now I has already uploaded app.ipa to AppStore successfully without any permission warnings.

That’s all. I works for me. Hope it helps.

I have also received the same error, while I am not using UIWebview in my application at all.
