React native ITMS-91053

Question

Reading about this subject, it seems that the third party SDK have to do the update and I should not change anything on my side. But as I am not sure if they will make the update on time and I do not want to generate bugs upgrading quickly my versions, I would like to handle it by my side.

It seems creating it directly with Xcode works, but in my case I still have the issues.

I created a App Privacy file using Xcode on my project root with the following content

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
   <dict>
      <key>NSPrivacyAccessedAPITypes</key>
      <array>
         <dict>
            <key>NSPrivacyAccessedAPIType</key>
            <string>NSPrivacyAccessedAPICategoryDiskSpace</string>

            <key>NSPrivacyAccessedAPITypeReasons</key>
            <array>
               <string>7D9E.1</string>
            </array>
         </dict>
         <dict>
            <key>NSPrivacyAccessedAPIType</key>
            <string>NSPrivacyAccessedAPICategorySystemBootTime</string>
            
            <key>NSPrivacyAccessedAPITypeReasons</key>
            <array>
               <string>3D61.1</string>
            </array>
         </dict>
      </array>
   </dict>
</plist>

But then each time I release it with TestFlight, I still have the same error messages
