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.

Had the same problem. Thank you.

I also this came communication fail. Thank you.

had the same issue. workaround fixed it for now. thx!

There was same issue on React Native. facebook/react-native#1563

They just added blew code to end of Info.plist

NSAppTransportSecurity


NSAllowsArbitraryLoads

is there a way to do this with a deploy script? its super annoying to add this 2 entries in xcode every time after a meteor reset

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

From iOS 9 We can not hit API directly. Apple had added Transport Security feature that improves the security of connections between an app and web services. This feature consists of default connection that conform to best practices for secure connections.
Connections that do not follow the requirements will fail and give “The resource could not be loaded because the App Transport Security policy requires the use of a secure connection.” error.

So, We have to add NSAppTransportSecurity dictionary in your .plist file and the NSAllowsArbitraryLoads key to YES under it to turn off transport security.

For more detail read Apple document https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/ios/technotes/App-Transport-Security-Technote/index.html

Day saved! Thank you @Tarang !

This is still an issue. I am having to update the info.plist before running the app on the device. Here is a stackoverflow http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30731785/how-do-i-load-an-http-url-with-app-transport-security-enabled-in-ios-9

It works!

Thanks.. Your post helped me with my ionic and Node.js app.

What a relief. Thanks.. Saved my time.
