Description
iOS 9 (may) force developers to use App Transport Security exclusively. I overheard this somewhere randomly so I don't know whether this is true myself. But I suspect it and have come to this conclusion:
The app running on iOS 9 will (maybe) no longer connect to a Meteor server without SSL.
This means running meteor run ios or meteor run ios-device will (probably?) no longer work.
In the app's info.plist, NSAppTransportSecurity [Dictionary] needs to have a key NSAllowsArbitraryLoads [Boolean] to be set to YES or Meteor needs to use https for its localhost server soon. (From Page 26 http://devstreaming.apple.com/videos/wwdc/2015/711y6zlz0ll/711/711_networking_with_nsurlsession.pdf?dl=1)
This is what an error may look like. Of course this is at best, a guess:
The resource could not be loaded because the App Transport Security policy requires the use of a secure connection.
The best possible fix is to get Meteor to use a SSL server in dev mode.
Oh the hassle! Also again, I overheard this from a loud third party.

Haha, this just had me spinning in circles for the last hour. Great catch, thanks for the work around.

Thanks for the report. The MDG core team is focused on some other areas of the platform right now, so we may not get to a fix for this soon. We’d welcome community help on this and other Cordova bugs in the form of PRs or other supporting information.

The workaround is now published as part of 1.2-rc.14. Try it out!
