EXPO SDK 37 - App Store Rejection - ITMS-90809: Deprecated API Usage

  1. SDK Version: 37
  2. Platforms(Android/iOS/web/all): all

Hi

I am trying to upload first build of my app to the app store, it is being rejected with the following message:

App Store Connect173x45

Dear Developer,

We identified one or more issues with a recent delivery for your app, Please correct the following issues, then upload again.

ITMS-90809: Deprecated API Usage - New apps that use UIWebView are no longer accepted. Instead, use WKWebView for improved security and reliability.

I have seen several posts about this issue but they all seem to point to upgrading to the latest SDK, and I am already on 37. Any ideas here? Below is my list of dependencies:

Dankurf, did you make sure to update all dependencies accordingly?

Im seeing the following:

"react-native": "https://github.com/expo/react-native/archive/sdk-35.0.0.tar.gz",

Also your Expo version is @ 35.

You are basically still loading SDK35? We update to SDK37 and for us it is "react-native": "https://github.com/expo/react-native/archive/sdk-37.0.0.tar.gz".

In this article Expo SDK 37 is now available. Today, we’re announcing our first… | by Eric Samelson | Exposition it explains how to upgrade.

I hope this helps.

Thank you @dept , that was the issue , I had not done this before!
