NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:s];
NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
[_webView loadRequest:request];Somehow the request is getting converted from http to https in iOS 9 on iPad mini.
In my shouldStartLoadWithRequest method, I log the requests and I notice that it starts okay with the requests being http, then it suddenly changes to https without me doing anything.
Anyone seeing the same?
This is a new "security" feature. iOS 9 enforces secure connections, so all normal "http" connections will fail by default. Right now this won't work for many use cases, so you can opt-out for specific domains or even completely. Look for the keyword "App Transport Security" (ATS).

Thank you! It's not in the docs anywhere according to that thread.
