Gotcha, so the error I am seeing with an older app force quitting is not expected. I should be able to build with existing Cordova and run on ios8 just in the older webview?
I haven't tried to rebuild and I am not certain what version of Cordova even built that old app. I will look into it more but it should be working by the sounds of this.
