This actually can be fixed with no changes to this plugin. Simply add this to your info.plist

<key>NSBonjourServices</key>
    <array>
        <string>my_service._tcp.</string>
        <string>my_other_service._tcp.</string>
    </array>
<key>NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription</key>
<string>Describe why you want to use local network discovery here</string>

For those wanting a way to script this, you can add the following to your config.xml:

<config-file parent="NSBonjourServices" target="*-Info.plist">
    <array>
        <string>_my_service._tcp.</string>
    </array>
</config-file>
<config-file parent="NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription" target="*-Info.plist">
    <string>My service description.</string>
</config-file>

Having the same struggle. Thanks @CoDanny got the fix!

Would be nice if this issue was documented. Finding this over google was not 100% intuitive.

Thank you for the library!

Hello,

I'm battling with this issue at the moment. Please can you share the chunk from your info.plist? Mine looks like this at the moment and is not working:

`NSBonjourServices

watch._tcp. register._tcp. unregister._tcp_ 
<key>NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription</key>
<string>Bonjour services</string>`

Hi, Adding the entry to plist did not solve it for me, I had to make a slight adjusment - take note of the "dot" after _tcp in each entry, after finding comment on Apple Developer site https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/653316?answerId=676938022#676938022

plist

        <key>NSBonjourServices</key>
    <array>
        <string>_myservice._tcp</string>
    </array>
    <key>NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription</key>
    <string>Locate server using local network discovery</string>

code Zeroconf.watch('_myservice._tcp.', 'local.').subscribe(result => {
