[jira] [Closed] (CB-9941) InAppBrowser support for Safari View
Controller on iOS9
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9941?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
jcesarmobile closed CB-9941.
----------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Assignee: jcesarmobile
As you say, there is already a 3rd party plugin, and safari view controller is only supported on iOS 10 and greater, so it's better to keep it separate from inAppBrowser plugin at least until we drop support for iOS 8, so closing for now.
The plugin is maintained by [~EddyVerbruggen], he is a great contributor to cordova core plugins and maintains a lot of his plugins too, it's safe to use.

> Key: CB-9941
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9941
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Plugin InAppBrowser

> Apple introduced Safari View Controller in iOS9 in order to improve the interaction between apps that includes external web content.
> In Cordova, the interaction with external web content is handled through the InAppBrowser plugin.
> We've already experienced that Apple asks questions as part of the approval process related to support of Safari View Controller. Other cordova apps in the App Store will most likely experience the same.
> We hope support for Safari View Controller can be added to the InAppBrowser. There is a third-party plugin for it (https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/cordova-plugin-safariviewcontroller) , but we would argue that such an important feature ought to be part of a plugin maintained by the Apache Software Foundation.
> As a commercial entity we need to rely on mature and proven solutions that will be maintained in the future and are not dependent on any one individual.
