My IOS app is using the map function for showing route and following is the map related configuration from info.plist
<key>CFBundleDocumentTypes</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>CFBundleTypeName</key>
<string>MKDirectionsRequest</string>
<key>LSHandlerRank</key>
<string>Default</string>
<key>LSItemContentTypes</key>
<array>
<string>com.apple.maps.directionsrequest</string>
</array>
</dict>
</array>
<key>MKDirectionsApplicationSupportedModes</key>
<array>
<string>MKDirectionsModeBike</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModeBus</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModeCar</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModePedestrian</string>
</array>
The app is only focusing on sweden, and following is the "sweden.geojson" file. Where coordinates start with longitude then latitude, with three brackets to close a polygon. Last coordinate is same as the first one.
{
"type": "MultiPolygon",
"coordinates": [
[[[9.755,54.977],[24.960,54.977],[24.960,69.565],[9.755,69.565],[9.755,54.977]]]
]
}
The initial json format validation passes, so I can do the submit, but then I got the emails with error: invalid binary, IOS realease ITMS-90117: Missing routing app coverage file. I even tried the sample json file from apple documentation but it is same error. Been on apple developer forum searching, but it is only problem posting, and no one posts any solution. Help appreciated...
This may or may not help you as I don't know the purpose of your app, but I had the same problem and and have found a solution that works for me.
I use MapKit to provide directions inside the app, but it isn't a directions app.
The solution was to turn off Map from the app capabilities (on the Signing and Capabilities tab). This setting indicates that the app works as a general purpose directions app.
I'm theorizing (but don't know for sure) that the reason the binary was invalid before I turned off the Map capability was that you can't have the capability enabled without providing a way to start the app with a location.

I can't get any part of deep linking working in my Flutter app. None of the documentation I can find on this is anywhere near adequate. eg none mention this, but it appears https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/supporting-associated-domains?language=objc that I need to provide a file on my server? Nor is there any discussion I can find of that or in what way I need to set up an associated domain.
May app on launch directs to the login page of a local copy of my website. Following login, my site redirects to myappname:mywebsite.
In my Info.plist, I have:
<key>CFBundleURLTypes</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>CFBundleTypeRole</key>
<string>Editor</string>
<key>CFBundleURLName</key>
<string>mywebsite</string>
<key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
<array>
<string>myappname</string>
</array>
</dict>
</array>
Following a tip from someone on reddit (as I say, this stuff isn't documented anywhere!), I added an associated domain in XCode applinks:mywebsite?mode=developer
I also redirected my domain in my local hosts file to my local machine. I've verified in the browser in the iOS simulator that the domain redirect is working in the simulator.
It appears from Apple's documentation that I should see a hit on my website to .well-known/apple-app-site-association but I get nothing.
My app successfully redirects on launch to the login page, but when I complete the login, my site issues a redirect to myappname://mywebsite but the browser in the simulator is just ignoring this.
I opened the console on the device browser from Safari, but nothing is reported.
I am trying to implement deep linking in my flutter app. I am using the uni_links flutter package.
I am sending the deeplink for my application to the user's email account. However, in gmail, you need the http protocol in the href value, Otherwise gmail will not consider that as a valid link. Hence I am forced to use the following link in the email :
Click here
as opposed to a link like,
Click here
Now with https://myexample.flutter.dev, when I open the link from gmail, it doesn't open my app.
But, if I change my CFBundleURLSchemes key to myexample and CFBundleURLName to flutter.dev, when I type in myexample://flutter.dev in my browser, it opens my app. However, like I mentioned before, this is not recognized as a valid link in gmail.
What is the issue here? How do I resolve this?
Here's my ios/Runner/Info.plist :
<array>
<dict>
<key>CFBundleTypeRole</key>
<string>Editor</string>
<key>CFBundleURLName</key>
<string>myexample.flutter.dev</string>
<key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
<array>
<string>https</string>
</array>
</dict>
</array>
The first one is custom link you can do it by yourself
Click here
The second one is universal link
You need to provide file on the backend side to make it work.
Universal Links only work with https scheme and require a specified host, entitlements and a hosted file - apple-app-site-association.

PS. I think right now as the end of the 2020 the best way to handle deeplinks is by Firebase Dynamic Links. Maybe future people will consider it it should be much more easier
I am submitting my app to the app store which uses location services (GPS dot) and MKPinAnnotations and doesn't use anything else for a map, and it looks from what I have researched that the Routing Coverage File is used for overlays?
I dont think I need a Routing Coverage File, but when I go to publish, xcode errors out saying it is missing in the Itunes Connect.
The category for the app is Utilities. It was also navigation but I unticked this hoping it would solve the issue and it didn't.
How can I get around this?
I had the exact same issue earlier today when trying to publish an application that uses the MapKit but does not offer routing capabilities. I resolved it by deselecting all supported routing modes under '{Target} --> Capabilities --> Maps'. If you are just looking at the Info.plist file then you can remove the the MKDirectionsApplicationSupportedModes key and the CFBundleTypeName key that equals MKDirectionsRequest.
<key>CFBundleDocumentTypes</key>
<array>
<dict>
<!--Remove both of these key/value pairs -->
<key>CFBundleTypeName</key>
<string>MKDirectionsRequest</string>
<key>LSItemContentTypes</key>
<array>
<string>com.apple.maps.directionsrequest</string>
</array>
</dict>
</array>
and
<key>MKDirectionsApplicationSupportedModes</key>
<array>
<string>MKDirectionsModeBike</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModeBus</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModeCar</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModeFerry</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModeOther</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModePedestrian</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModePlane</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModeStreetCar</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModeSubway</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModeTaxi</string>
<string>MKDirectionsModeTrain</string>
</array>
turn off map capability solved my problem,
xcode - next to general tap, you should see capability tab,
scroll down to maps section, turn it off,
general tab, change you build and version different from last time,
re-upload to app store.
This time it would not ask for routing profile coverage file,
Done.
This took me a long time to figure out, but the problem was with my scheme. It was the routing app coverage file location. I just change it to "None". Go to your scheme -> Edit Scheme -> Run -> Options -> Routing App Coverage File, change it to None.

I was trying to implement this functionallity for the first time, and seemed pretty straight forward, but for some reason is not working for me.
My intention is to open a simple jpeg from the mail app into my application, after that was not working I was just trying to open any kind of document by adding this to the Info.plist.
Same result, my application is not appearing on the list of "Open with..."
<key>CFBundleDocumentTypes</key> <array>
<dict>
<key>CFBundleTypeName</key>
<string>All Docs</string>
<key>CFBundleTypeRole</key>
<string>Viewer</string>
<key>LSHandlerRank</key>
<string>Alternate</string>
<key>LSItemContentTypes</key>
<array>
<string>public.content</string>
</array>
</dict> </array>
I have search already in StackOverFlow and the apple docs, but none of the answers make it work for me, so maybe is something simple that I am missing here...
Why is my iOS app not showing up in other apps' "Open in" dialog?
How do I associate file types with an iPhone application?
How I am testing it (maybe has to do with this):
Have an email with an attachment. Add the settings to the plist and the run the application on my device, hoping that the next time I open the mail app and click on the attachment my app will be on the list.
Well, it seems that is not possible. At least to provide a custom way to open images from the mail app. There is no problem if is from another place, but apple has limited the options on the mail app so we would use the "copy" option as a workaround.
Update:
This question goes in the same direction.
It is now possible to open images from the mail app, it's just somewhat convoluted:
Tap and hold the image.
Tap on Quick Look so the image goes fullscreen.
Tap the image to show the top toolbar.
Tap the open in button at the top right.
Scroll the list to the left to find your app.
I'd like to create a file associate with tiff files in my iOS app (i.e. so that my app appears as a target for opening tiff files from Mail or Safari). Adding the following to my Info.plist file doesn't seem to work:
<key>CFBundleDocumentTypes</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>CFBundleTypeName</key>
<string>tiff</string>
<key>LSItemContentTypes</key>
<array>
<string>public.tiff</string>
</array>
<key>LSHandlerRank</key>
<string>Alternate</string>
</dict>
</array>
I have an app that I associate with PDFs in the same way and it works fine. I believe that it is not possible to associate an app with the tiff file type on iOS, but I can't find any documentation stating that.
Has anyone else had luck getting this to work or finding a definitive "no, you can't do that"?
I burned an Apple TSI on this (I never seem to end up using them anyway) and the official answer is: no, you can't do that.
I've logged an enhancement request on Apple's bug reporting site: http://developer.apple.com/bugreporter/ and I suggest you do too if this issue is a problem for you.
Acorn declares file associations for TIFFs, which seems to work fine.
The only differences I could see between Acorn's implementation and yours is that Gus omits CFBundleTypeName and adds LSIsAppleDefaultForType (set to true). You might want to give that a try.
LSIsAppleDefaultForType is undocumented. There's a reference to it here: http://lists.apple.com/archives/cocoa-dev/2006/Jun/msg00747.html
An general note - the Mail and Safari apps indeed does not allow you to "open with .." tiff files (still true in iOS8);
Nevertheless, a lot of other apps, such as Dropbox, GDrive, etc, does allow you to do that.
