Recently Apple has made it mandatory to add declare encryption/cryptography with every build uploaded to Itunesconnect. But since it is not applicable to me since my app doesn't involve in any of those functions said by apple page (Correct me If I am wrong).I would like to apply for exemption from it.
For that I have to add
<key>ITSAppUsesNonExemptEncryption</key><false/>
to info.plist as specified by Ituneconnect manual.
Since my app is built with Phonegap Build I can only add with config file(Would like to know if there are any other way.).
So I try to add it with Config File Element.Like this.
<config-file platform="ios" parent="ITSAppUsesNonExemptEncryption" mode="add">
<false />
</config-file>
But it did no difference.info.plist did not include above property when I try to extract .ipa from phonegap build and check it out. What am I doing wrong. Is there any other way to get around Compliance Laws with phonegap build.
This is the config.xml file:
<widget id="com.example.examples" version="0.0.30.4" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets" xmlns:gap="http://phonegap.com/ns/1.0">
<name>example</name>

It just doesn't add the desired property "ITSAppUsesNonExemptEncryption".
Please Help

The point here is that quite in contrary to the documentation http://docs.build.phonegap.com/en_US/configuring_config_file_element.md.html
You must use the gap: namespace such that the config-file tags have an effect. See https://github.com/phonegap/build/issues/512.
I can confirm that the solution twistedm3 posted leads to the tags to be included in the Info.plist like expected.

As a PhoneGap Build user in the config.xml try:
<gap:config-file platform="ios" parent="ITSAppUsesNonExemptEncryption" mode="add">
<false/>
</gap:config-file>

UPDATE
You can't use the cordova-custom-config plugin to define custom config in your config.xml because Phonegap Build doesn't execute plugin hooks :-(
But I believe (not being a Phonegap Build user) that you can use their Config File Elements to do something like:
<config-file platform="ios" parent="CFBundleURLTypes" mode="add">
<array>
<dict>
<key>ITSAppUsesNonExemptEncryption</key>
<false/>
</dict>
</array>
</config-file>
There's a skeleton plugin that applies this to the iOS .plist, but since it's only in a Git repo and not published to NPM, I don't think you can use it with Phonegap Build.
