i am fighting with an issue "Unauthenticated access is not supported for this identity pool." from AWS Cognito in my Swift iOS Application. I previously used Firebase for authentication & storage and have decided to migrate to AWS Mobile Hud for reasons outside the scope of this question.
I use / have set up:
I downloaded the sample app generated for my project and run it.
Through the sample app, I am able to successfully register / authenticate through Facebook and Cognito.
What works?: I have integrated all SDK/Frameworks of AWS into my project and am able to build successfully (note: all AWS frameworks are integrated through cocoapods, except 'AWSMobileHubHelper' as a static framework).
I can build the app and it opens
What does not work?: The app crashes immediately after opening up with the following crash log:

The more i look at it it seems to be an issue with AWSTask.
Any ideas where I might head next?
The issue was resolved with an update by AWS with Swift 3 Support.
