In iOS 9, Apple tightened the level of security for external resources such as files on remote servers. This is referred to as App Transport Security (ATS) and, by default, access to HTTP resources are now blocked within iOS apps. Wherever possible, therefore, the more secure HTTPS protocol should be used instead of HTTP. In recognition of the fact that not all servers support HTTPS it is possible to add an exception to the Info.plist file of the app project. This can be configured on a general basis or declared for individual domains.
