I think we both might be mistaking the required move from UIWebView to WKWebView (instead thinking we had to move from WKWebView to SFSafariViewController).

> ITMS-90809: Deprecated API Usage - New apps that use UIWebView are no longer accepted. Instead, use WKWebView for improved security and reliability. Learn more (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiwebview).

I get this problem while using Cordova inappbrowser that uses WKWebView.

Exactly my thoughts too.

How is that possible that Google Play and Apple store allow apps like this to get published?

Yes

What are you trying to use? There's no restriction on using WKWebView. If you try to bypass Webkit, you'll get rejected for sure, but you are not forced to use SFSafariViewController

I am using the inappbrowser for Cordova, that i am sure uses WKWebView, but as soon as the app store testers see the webview, they reject the app and want me to use SafariViewController. Happened to all my latest app submissions/updates
