AppAuth: sharedApplication is unavailable (extensions)

Issue

I've gotten react-native-app-auth to work perfectly in the simulator on both iOS and Android. When trying to build & archive for release, however, I get the following error:

I'm building a mobile app with an extension, and I guess this is why AppAuth is dying. Would anyone know of a workaround for this?

My Podfile:

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '10.0'

target 'BCAutoFillExtension' do
  # Comment the next line if you don't want to use dynamic frameworks
  use_frameworks!

  # Pods for BCAutoFillExtension
  pod 'AppAuth', '0.95.0'

end

target 'Buttercup' do
  # Comment the next line if you don't want to use dynamic frameworks
  use_frameworks!

  # Pods for Buttercup
  pod 'AppAuth', '0.95.0'

end

Versions:

{
	"react-native": "^0.57.1",
    "react-native-app-auth": "^4.4.0"
}

Not sure how to get around this. There's an issue on AppAuth referencing AppAuth and AppAuth/Core to separate concerns for extensions (openid/AppAuth-iOS#198) - is this handled by this library at all?

👋 hey @perry-mitchell - I'm assuming that you found a solution to your problem, but I checked out the AppAuth-ios extension example, and it looks like your Podfile declaration is off for the extension. Closing this out as it looks like this app has react-native-app-auth as a dependency.
