Read SSID not working with iOS React-Native 0.57 #5

Best I can tell this is a compatibility issue with the latest React-Native version on iOS (Android works fine).

I get this warning when loading the app:

And this error when calling getCurrentWifiSSID()

I'm also seeing that warning and this error on iOS. For a while, I was confused about the "Cannot detect SSID error"; I thought it was referring to an attempt to connect to an SSID, while it actually refers to an attempt to read the currently connected SSID. Could the error message be made clearer, something like "Cannot detect current SSID"?

Try enabling the "Access WiFi Information capability; this seems to work for me:

I am getting this error whenever I am on Cell, and not connected to wifi, but want to connect to a wifi ssid. I am also not able to actually catch the error...any ideas?
