Phonegap build app not working for iOS

Question

I'm building mobile app using phonegap build. I have build app for iOS, Android and windows and I'm testing it in TestObject. What I'm doing in my app is redirecting to http://google.com on page load itself.

index.html

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>
    <head>
        <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="cordova.js"></script>  
        <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
            function onLoad() {
                  document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, true);
            }

            function onDeviceReady() {
                window.location.href = "http://google.com";
            }
        </script>
    </head>
    <body onload="onLoad();">
  </body>
</html>

config.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    <widget xmlns   = "http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets"
        xmlns:gap   = "http://phonegap.com/ns/1.0"
        id          = "com.newApp.mobileApp"
        versionCode = "1" 
        version     = "1.0.0" >

    <!-- versionCode is Android only -->
    <!-- version is in major.minor.patch format --> 
    <name>My New App</name>

    <plugin name="cordova-plugin-whitelist" source="npm"/>
</widget>

While testing with android (apk file), it is redirecting to google.com. But when I test with iOS device (ipa file), it is showing blank page only.

Why it is not working for iOS?

Can anyone help me to fix this? Thanks in advance.

have you set options for your ios device to don't restrict? ..posto your config.xml also if you can — federico scamuzzi
@Naitik..I tried adding <plugin name="cordova-plugin-inappbrowser" source="npm"/> in config.xml file. But yet it is not working. — Jenz

<access origin="*" launch-external="yes" />
  <allow-intent href="http://*/*" />
  <allow-intent href="https://*/*" />
  <access origin="http://127.0.0.1*"/>
  <allow-navigation href="*"/>
  <allow-intent href="*"/>

to be on safe side regarding whitelist , i use these intents in my app

in addition to above , i added this plugins for Android

<gap:plugin name="cordova-plugin-whitelist" version="1.1.0" source="npm" />

and for IOS

<plugin name="cordova-plugin-whitelist" spec="https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-whitelist.git" />
