Cannot coexist with UIWebView on iOS 7 and below

Hey,

I'm wondering what your experience with this was. Does this mean Apple will automatically reject an app if it uses both WKWebView and UIWebView? Wondering why you think Apple would take this position

Thanks!!

Hi,

Take a look at the issue #1

If your app's Deployment Target includes iOS7 or older versions, iTunes Connect would warn that "It uses Private API" when you submit the app.
I'm not certain whether the validation still works as it used to, though.

Thanks for the response!

Just my 2 cents here. It's possible to submit your App with both UIWebView and WKWebView.
The trick is to dynamically load the WebKit framework at runtime.
