@iwantosee - for my Cordova project I am running cordova-ios 6.2.0 and implemented your recommended changes to the CDVWebViewEngine.m file, recompiled my app from CLI - then deployed my app from Xcode to the simulator but my app does not show under the Safari -> Develop -> iPhone Simulator. The simulator is listed...but the app is not. I also downloaded the Safari Technology Preview and the same thing...simulator is listed but the app is not. I compared your edit to the one found in the same file from the GitHub repo you referenced. though similar, it is written differently. Does this matter? Any suggestions?

Heh...well...in Simulator I/O - I simply selected toggle software keyboard and it popped back up on the screen. On that simulator device it now seems to work just fine - must have been an odd glitch. I deployed my app to other simulator devices and the on-screen virtual keyboard came up everytime wihtout issue. Gonna mark this one as "glitchty mac-y" (again).

I found the link directly to the App Store connect page - which allows me/you to bypass their broken jump page. https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/login
