Handing off from iOS8Device to iOS9Device: *iOS8Device:* Activity moved to a different device. *iOS9Device:* continueactivity was fired.

TEST CODE:

Ti.API.info("Creating activity...");
var win = Ti.UI.createWindow();
win.add(Ti.UI.createLabel({text: "Check logs",color: "white"}))
var activity =  Ti.App.iOS.createUserActivity({
    activityType:'com.foo.message',
    title:'Handoff Messenger',
    userInfo:{
        msg: 'Tag! You\'re it!'
    }
});
 
 
//if(!activity.isSupported()){
//    alert('activity is not supported');
//} else {
	Ti.API.info("Activity is supported...");
    activity.becomeCurrent();
//}
 
activity.addEventListener('useractivitywascontinued', function(e) {
    alert('Activity moved to a different device.');
});
 
Ti.App.iOS.addEventListener('continueactivity', function(e){
    alert("continueactivity was fired");
    if (e.activityType === 'com.foo.message' && e.userInfo.msg) {
        Ti.API.info(e.userInfo.msg);
    }
});
 
win.open();

	</plist>
</ios>
 
**/

Steps to Reproduce

1. Ensure that both iOS8 / iOS9 devices are: - Logged into the same iCloud account. - Connected to the same WiFi Network. - Bluetooth enabled. 2. Create a classic mobile application. 3. Apply the above test code to the app.js file. 4. Run the app to both devices. 5. Launch the app on the iOS9 device. 6. Launch the app through Handoff on the iOS8 device either by: - Swiping up from the app icon present on the lock screen. - Double tapping the home button and selecting the app.

Actual Result

App crashes with no error.

Expected Result

App should handoff from the iOS9 device to the iOS8 device successfully.

    Alright, I guess the following is causing the error: 
           if( [userActivity.activityType isEqualToString:CSSearchableItemActionType]){
           if([userActivity userInfo] !=nil){
               [dict setObject:[[userActivity userInfo] objectForKey:CSSearchableItemActivityIdentifier] forKey:@"searchableItemActivityIdentifier"];
           }
       }
    because isEqualToString:CSSearchableItemActionType is an iOS 9 API. That also explains, why it works from iOS 8 to iOS 9 but not the other way around. Will wrap it properly to be ignored on iOS < 9. Good catch! Additional infos: - Caused by [this PR](https://github.com/appcelerator/titanium_mobile/pull/7081) - Inside the core since the 5.0.0 release - Adjusted the demo-code to log the second debug. That was causing the alert-warning, because the previous alert was already presented.
