@maxchuquimia Thanks for raising the issue. We are currently working on updating the swift dependency to the latest release version. The latest version of the Swift SDK defaults the networking layer to use Foundation API's rather than aws-crt-swift to utilize the optimizations of various Apple platforms.

Hopefully the update will help you avoid this issue altogether. Let me know if you have any concerns or thoughts?

I will keep this issue updated with further progress.

Hey, Is there any ETA when this can be address by the swift-sdk update? We are experienccing one of the crashes that is marked "to-be-fixed" by this change and we'd like to understand the timelines if any? Thanks!

@fzy-spyro I am actively working on updating the dependency. There are still some small behavioural changes that I am ironing out. I'll post an update on the PR and on the issue in the next couple of days.
Thank you for your patience.

@fzy-spyro @maxchuquimia Amplify has updated the SDK dependency and pushed out a new update. i.e. 2.27.0. This update uses Foundation as the default network client on iOS and you should not experience the CRT issue. Please reopen the issue with more details, if you are still experiencing this issue.
