Configuring App Transport Security for WatchKit (LaunchServicesError error 0.)

I am building a WatchKit app that talks to a non-HTTPS API, so I need to configure App Transport Security to allow for exception domains.

When I execute the NSURLRequest, I get the following error:

App Transport Security has blocked a cleartext HTTP (http://) resource load since it is insecure. Temporary exceptions can be configured via your app's Info.plist file.

So I've added this to my Info.plist:

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
    <key>NSExceptionDomains</key>
    <dict>
        <key>domain.com</key>
        <dict>
            <key>NSIncludesSubdomains</key>
            <true/>
            <key>NSExceptionAllowsInsecureHTTPLoads</key>
            <true/>
        </dict>
    </dict>
</dict>

But when I try to run in the Simulator, I get an Xcode error:

The operation couldn’t be completed. (LaunchServicesError error 0.)

The key to this is that you need to add the NSAppTransportSecurity keys to the Info.plist file for your Watch Extension, not your WatchKit App or iPhone App targets.
