    Try adding this cordova-ios version:

    ionic cordova platform add [email protected]

    I had the same problem and I could upload my app with this version

    Well I had this issue aswell on a running productive app.
    Apple doesn’t want you to use any UIWebView references within your app.

    Solution number 1 (properly) would be to update your whole Ionic project with all the plugins you got where there are still some UIWebView references. This could take a while and even be impossible as I encountered a lot of outdated plugins where nobody is updating it properly.

    The way I did it to still use Ionic 3

    In your build script (I would do one instead of always typing all the commands in your bash) add the cordova platform version 5.1.1. For me only this version worked fine to still be compatible with Ionic 3 plugins and Apple not sending me this message ever again.

    Then do an ionic cordova prepare ios/android.

    This should do the trick:
