Avast Blocks Secure Connections in XCode Simulator

Avast Mac Security

I am currently using Avast Security for Mac and have discovered an issue / conflict between Avast and XCode simulator.

This stackoverflow post (from another user) describes the issue: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46980164/cant-visit-website-on-ios-simulator-this-connection-is-not-private

Essentially, in order to use XCode simulator I have to disable Avast WebShield. This is obviously not ideal, and indeed could force me to look at alternate AV Software if it cannot be address.

Hello,

we most likely consider the browser running in emulator as a normal browser. I will check whether this can be easily solved.

Kind regards,
