Parse server hosted on heroku Apple rejection

Question

I have an app using parse server that is hosted on heroku. Apple rejected my app saying that it crashes on IPv6 network. I checked the url to the server on http://ready.chair6.net and it is indeed not compatible. Please help!!! What are possible solutions? parse.com is shutting down in 4 days and I need this migration to take place. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

This isn't related to Parse Server, Heroku or Apple requiring IPv6 since many iOS apps are using Parse Server on Heroku successfully. More information here: More information on "Apple has rejected my application because Heroku does not support IPv6"

We recommend that you check out how your app manages it's networking and network requests, and then clarify the particular points with Apple if necessary. Note that using domain name-based resolution is almost always preferred over a static IP address, the latter of which being the most common failure we've seen with App Store submissions.

I would investigate how you've configured networking in your application. If you've signed up for Cloudflare , you can have it proxy some of IPv6 traffic to Heroku in the settings panel as a last resort.
