Then logic leads to believe that your admob plugin must be using UIWebView. cordova-ios@6 removed all UIWebView related code.
Whatever admob plugin you're using, must be using at least version 7.55.0 (2020‑02‑04), as that's the version where they stopped using UIWebView in the admob sdk. See https://developers.google.com/admob/ios/rel-notes
Bug Report
UIWebView deprecated API
Problem
I am using the latest Cordova - ios, 6.1 but I am still getting flagged for using UIWebView by Apple
What is expected to happen?
Since I do not have any third party frameworks or plugins other than AdMob, the latest Cordova update along with the WKWebView preference should've removed any calls to UIWebView
What does actually happen?
I am still getting flagged for Using UIWebView.
Information
I am using Cordova and Xcode to build my app for IOS. When I search for UIWebview using the grep -r command I get no references.
Command or Code
Running the "grep -rnw . -e 'UIWebView'" command to look through the binary files yields these result:
