So GPT seems to think that each SDK needs its own file which means manually creating a manifest is a waste of time.
Anyone have any experience with this?
It looks like as of 12 Feb 2025 all SDKs require their own privacy manifest and signature.
Therefore it seems the manually creating a master privacy manifest is no longer possible and updating all packages / SDKs is the only option.
The rejection means that Apple isn’t recognizing your app’s combined privacy manifest as fulfilling the requirement—each third‑party SDK must include its own privacy manifest file inside its framework bundle.
What’s happening?
Apple’s guidelines require that every commonly used third‑party SDK (such as Capacitor, Cordova, FirebaseCore, etc.) embeds aPrivacyInfo.xcprivacyfile in its own bundle. Adding one combined file at the app level (even if it covers all SDKs) isn’t sufficient. The error messages indicate that these frameworks don’t have their own embedded privacy manifests.
