App: "Nappkin" Apple ID: 639242085 Hi, We are getting several "Missing API declaration" warnings (see below) when submitting our iOS app to the AppStore. Our app doesn't not use the mentioned api's but apparently one or more of the libraries we use do. We have included a privacy manifest that states this fact (included below). Why are we still getting these warnings/errors when we have included a privacy manifest? If each framework used must have a manifest can you tell me which frameworks are in error? We have no influence on the contents of the frameworks used in our apps. How can we comply if a framework we use does not have a required manifest and is unable or unwilling to include it? Our app is a point-of-sale app used by 100's of professionals. We have been in the AppStore for more than 10 years. Our app is fully dependend on several frameworks and not being able to update our app will mean we have to close our business. Thanks!
