Google Sign-In crashes on iOS 9 attempting to call canOpenURL

While testing Google Sign-In 2.1.0 on the iOS 9 SDK, invoking GIDSignIn.sharedInstance().signInSilently() ends up crashing on an internal Google Sign-In SDK call to canOpenURL.

Solution

iOS 9 has introduced new changes to canOpenURL requiring the application to whitelist all the schemes it needs to query.

This post on Quick Take on iOS 9 URL Scheme Changes explains why.

At a minimum you need to whitelist you own application’s identifier and your Google OAuth apps id in Info.plist under LSApplicationQueriesSchemes. You can also whitelist the other schemes Google Sign-In queries to silence the other warnings.

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
    <string>com.example.foo</string>
    <string>com.googleusercontent.apps.1234567890-abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz</string>
    <string>com-google-gidconsent-google</string>
    <string>com-google-gidconsent-youtube</string>
    <string>com-google-gidconsent</string>
    <string>com.google.gppconsent.2.4.1</string>
    <string>com.google.gppconsent.2.4.0</string>
    <string>googlechrome</string>
    <string>googlechrome-x-callback</string>
</array>
