WKWebView to go unresponsive and crash in iOS 15

We're having problems in iOS 15.0+ with WKWebView and this assertion:

[assertion] Error acquiring assertion: <Error Domain=RBSServiceErrorDomain Code=1 "target is not running or doesn't have entitlement com.apple.runningboard.assertions.webkit" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=target is not running or doesn't have entitlement com.apple.runningboard.assertions.webkit}> 

[ProcessSuspension] 0x116004e40 - ProcessAssertion: Failed to acquire RBS assertion 'ConnectionTerminationWatchdog' for process with PID=11505, error: Error Domain=RBSServiceErrorDomain Code=1 "target is not running or doesn't have entitlement com.apple.runningboard.assertions.webkit" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=target is not running or doesn't have entitlement com.apple.runningboard.assertions.webkit}

No problems for iOS versions < 15, and disabling this feature fixed the issue for us. We are looking to understand if this feature is intended to be enabled as part of iOS 15's official release. Curious if there is any insight available.

first ensure background processing and fetch is enabled

ensure all the following actions are called on webview

     webView.uiDelegate = self     webView.allowsBackForwardNavigationGestures = true     webView.allowsLinkPreview = true     webView.navigationDelegate = self

then u are good to go
