ITMS-90809: UIWebView API Deprecation (followed all instructions, however I'm getting the deprecation message)

When I’m uploading a build to AppStoreConnect (to test it via TestFlight for example), I’m getting the well known deprecation message:

ITMS-90809: Deprecated API Usage - Apple will stop accepting submissions of new apps that use UIWebView APIs starting from April 2020. See https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiwebview for more information.

However I have followed all the instructions (e.g. from the official Ionic Blog) and don’t know what I could have missed.

What I did:

1. Updated all cordova plugins to the latest version (e.g. cordova-plugin-ionic-webview is now on v4.1.3; cordova-plugin-inappbrowser is on v3.2.0)
2. Checked Cordova Platform (it is ios 5.1.1 )
3. Made sure that I have <preference name="WKWebViewOnly" value="true"/> in my config.xml
4. Ran ionic cordova prepare ios and ionic cordova build ios

I still get the deprecation message, I already tried removing the whole ios platform and adding it again afterwards, that didn’t help.

List of cordova plugins I’m using:

card.io.cordova.mobilesdk 2.1.0 "CardIO"
com-badrit-base64 0.2.0 "Base64"
