IOS App Transport Security has blocked a cleartext HTTP (http://) resource load since it is insecure.

Today's session I would like to show an issue that I recently had on my MAC, Xcode 7.2.

The description is:

2016-01-02 20:11:59.657 CrossoverNodeApp[3124:90587] Could not load the "crossover.png" image referenced from a nib in the bundle with identifier "IOS.CrossoverNodeApp"

2016-01-02 20:11:59.675 CrossoverNodeApp[3124:90631] App Transport Security has blocked a cleartext HTTP (http://) resource load since it is insecure. Temporary exceptions can be configured via your app's Info.plist file.

In order to fix this:

1- Go to your app folder:

2-Select the project-plist file

2.1-Click on icon add or '+' on Information property List

3-Add App Transport Security Settings

 

4-Add Allow Arbitrary Loads, change it to YES.

5-Add Exception Domains and add into it the host that is failing, in my case localhost.

6- The expected result of plist file should looks like this:

6-1- If you prefer doing this change from plist file perspective, here it is how it goes:

then you are good to run your app again...

Happy coding..
