Description

It looks like the plugin is causing a warning from Apple about the UIWebView API usage:

ITMS-90809: Deprecated API Usage - Apple will stop accepting submissions of apps that use UIWebView APIs .

issue is just for cordova-ios, I used version https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/pull/663 to remove UIWebView. When pushing an app without the googleplus plugin, there is no warning. Warning when adding plugin. So this plugin will also need an update to remove UIWebView code.

Will this be removed from future versions of the plugin?

Any quick way to remove it when building the binary?
