Hi, I can confirm that in iOS 16.4 and later versions, it prevents InAppBrowser from being inspected in Safari's web inspector by default.

There is an open PR (https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-inappbrowser/pull/995) addressing the problem. As a workaround until the library is fixed, you can add Swift code to src/ios/CDVWKInAppBrowser.m to enable web inspection.
