Answer 1

You can simply ignore it. This message just tells you, that the plugin was unloaded by the system.

The same happens when you use 3rd party keyboards while debugging your app when the keyboard has been dismissed.

Sounds good. I'd like to up-vote you but I have no way to confirm that nothing bad is happening to my App when I ignore this. Then I'd be misleading others into thinking I've confirmed this when in fact I don't know. Do you have any explanation about why this message is benign? – Tricksy

Its still giving same error in xCode7 GM.. Do you have any idea why this is happening? – Homer

Answer 2

Ignoring a problem is never a solution (Thyraz).

You are seeing this message in log because in IOS 9 ABPeoplePickerNavigationController is no longer works.

Now there is new library/framework for contacts(CNContact) which will be used in IOS 9 and above: https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/ios/documentation/Contacts/Reference/Contacts_Framework/index.html

may I ask you something you said ABPeoplePickerNavigationController is not available in iOS 9 while I'm developing my app and using it in iOS 9 and it is working fine. Could it be ignored if I submitted to the AppStore? – Hemoglobin

it is not true to say that ABPeoplePickerNavigationController "no longer works". It has been deprecated, which means there is a newer way to do this, but that does not mean the old way has been retired yet. – Ink
