With Cordova iOS 6+, you do not need cordova-plugin-wkwebview-engine anymore as WKWebView is the default. The plugin is deprecated (and CDVWKWebViewEngine, CordovaWebViewEngine and WKWebViewOnly features/preferences are obsolete). See https://cordova.apache.org/2021/02/07/deprecate-wkwebview-engine.html and https://cordova.apache.org/announcements/2020/06/01/cordova-ios-release-6.0.0.html
