+
+We are happy to announce that we have just released `Cordova iOS 8.1.0`! This is one of Cordova's supported platforms for building iOS applications.
+
+This release contains fixes for several bugs that were reported against the 8.0.1 version.
+
+* [cordova-ios@8.1.0](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-ios)
+
+**To upgrade:**
+
+```bash
+cordova platform remove ios
+cordova platform add ios@8.1.0
+```
+
+**To install:**
+
+```bash
+cordova platform add ios@8.1.0
+```
+
+## Release Highlights
+
+* **Fix for Ionic WebView plugin**
+
+    Re-add an implementation of the deprecated shouldOverrideLoadWithRequest:navigationType: selector because the Ionic WebView plugin relies on it.
+
+* **Fix /_app_file_/ URLs not working**
+
+    During refactoring of the URLSchemeTask handler for cordova-ios 8, an error was introduced where /_app_file_ URLs were treated as being relative to the resources directory rather than as filesystem paths.
+
+* **Fixes various build issues**
