IOS Error : Main Thread Checker: UI API called on a background thread

We are currently working on an IOS 11 device with unity 2017.1.0f3 and Xcode 9.5 beta (because Xcode 9 is the only version that currently pushes to IOS 11)

The moment the app starts, we hit this error and our app cannot start -
Main Thread Checker: UI API called on a background thread: -[UIApplication delegate]

This app ran fine before on any previous IOS version (pre IOS 11) when pushed out from Xcode 8

I am hoping that someone else may have ran into this issue and had a workaround as the error itself seems to stem from the core Unity UI in the build - the error throws on our intro scene which has nothing but a Unity UI canvas in it and an image with an animator!

 

Hello, try using Unity 2017.1.0p3
This seemed to fix a crash I was having too. Wasn't the same error, but it was related to the UIApplication delegate. Let me know what that does for you.

Ran into this using Unity 2017.1.0p3. Were you able to resolve it?

 

I found that the version of Xcode I was using would throw this error at some point, also possibly related to the version of the ARkit SDK we were using at the time. I would advise trying the latest version of Xcode if possible.

 

same issue with Unity 2017.3.0f3 + Xcode 9.2 (9C40b)

 

I'm seeing this issue as well. Same versions as kavanavak.

 

The defect is marked "Fixed in a future release"

Any information from Unity about when that release will come? This is a total showstopper for iOS.

 

Unity 5.6.4 p4 having this issue, any solution yet beside getting final version of Unity ?

 

It seems that, Unity released a patch version today ( 12 Jan ) , they fixed the issue, need to test it!

• (956318) (57809) - iOS: Fixed trampoline calling UI methods ([UIApplication delegate]) from a background thread.

 

Are updates delayed for free users? i can't get it to update!

 

We are on 2017.3.0f3. No patch is available for that version yet. Hopefully in the next few days.

 

I am working with xCode11 and Unity 2018.3.5f1, I am getting the same error. My project uses Vuforia model detection to play multiple animations on buttons getting clicked. Can anyone tell me what I should do to get rid of this?
