I had a same problem too. Removing the WkWebView solves the issue.

`ionic cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-wkwebview-engine`

More info:

> So I found that the WkWebView is the culprit, if I remove it and use UIWebView it works. I do see this is in the Xcode console, never seen it before. Ill add to see if it helps. I would still prefer WkWebView over UIWebView, but at least I know I’m not crazy, something is definetly blocking the http requests. Heres the output in Xcode. Wonder if these are some app security settings? subsystem: com.apple.BackBoardServices.fence, category: App, enable\_level: 1, persist\_level: 0, default\_ttl: 0, …

After this plugin is removed I can make http request via iOS!
