This is what was confusing me, e-mails we got in years past about moving from UIWebView to WKWebView. In my head I misremembered that as needing to move from WKWebView to SFSafariViewController.

There are a couple apps where we are using SFSafariViewController but WKWebView would make our lives easier so I need to go back and look at switching those out.

> ITMS-90809: Deprecated API Usage - App updates that use UIWebView will no longer be accepted as of December 2020. Instead, use WKWebView for improved security and reliability. Learn more (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiwebview).

I remember those, but we'd moved to WKWebView almost as s soon as Apple marked it deprecated.

We don't have many web views anymore, we still use a couple for signup and for the user to change their privacy settings because we need to change some behaviours based on the results, so we inject something to know if the user made changes and close the view. But there's no way for the user to navigate out to the greater web from the pages. Anything else and we instruct the os to open URLs
