ITMS-91061: Missing privacy manifest - Your app includes "Frameworks/Capacitor.framework/Capacitor", which includes Capacitor, an SDK that was identified in the documentation as a commonly used third-party SDK.

If you look at the documentation from Capacitor, you will see that:

Not all Applications will be flagged but certain plugins such as @capacitor/filesystem and @capacitor/preferences may necessitate a Privacy Manifest File. If you have received a notification:

Update Capacitor to: a. >= 6.0.0 for Capacitor 6 b. >= 5.7.4 for Capacitor 5 c. >= 4.8.2 for Capacitor 4 d. Capacitor <= 3 is not supported Use either the VS Code Extension to create the privacy manifest file for your app or create it manually.

Since you are using Capacitor 5, you need to upgrade to at least 5.7.4.

Those who cannot upgrade the Capacitor can use the following manifest file:

Combined manifest file for Capacitor and Cordova:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<plist version="1.0">
