I'm unable to connect to a secure websocket connection due to the error below on an iOS device (iOS 12 & 13).It seems there is a failure validating the certificate for the end-point but I can't find a way to determine the reason. I can connect to the websocket end-point from a browser client. I also verified the certificate using https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ and don't see any issues. The SSL certificate is issued from Let's Encrypt.Below is the console output I could capture from the device and console app on my mac laptop.XCODE DEBUG CONSOLE2020-04-29 16:18:03.501170-0700 [BoringSSL] boringssl_context_handle_fatal_alert(1873) [C12.1:1][0x1151122e0] write alert, level: fatal, description: certificate unknown

}Any thoughts on why this is an issue on iOS?I've also asked this question on SO:https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61513555/secure-websocket-connection-fails-on-ios-due-to-boringssl-certificate-verificatiThanks in advance for any help/hints.
