The `UIApplication.shared` error was received during the build phase when we activated Rich Push

[frknylmzcom2]

It started giving this error with the latest version coming to CocoaPods. So I can't get built in locally, and I can't continue development. I can't get builds from Expo either. Below I am sending you the details of the error. It doesn't get built as customerio-expo-plugin.ios.pushNotification.useRichPush: true on app.config. So there is no problem when useRichPush: false.

We are waiting impatiently. Thank You!

Also, I can't get the Device ID with SDK.

Hi @frknylmzcom2 Thanks for reaching out; we are aware of this issue and are working on a release to fix it. To unblock you, after running prebuild, try and apply this workaround and then run pod install in your ios folder. We apologize for the inconvenience and will release a fix for this issue soon.

Hi @xtreem88,

Thank you very much for your quick turnaround. This method is sufficient for development but still incorrect for the build.

What is your estimated time to resolve this error in general?

@frknylmzcom2 I can't give a definite ETA on this, but I do know it is one of the high-priority bug fixes we are working on.
