DispatchQueue.main.sync returning exc_bad_instruction Swift 3
<p>I want to display an ActivityIndicatorView in my app, but when I call the <code>sync</code> method from the main thread, the app crashes with the error: <code>exc_bad_instruction (code=exc_i386_invop subcode=0x0)</code>
I'm using xcode 8.0 and swift 3</p>

<p>Can someone please help me?</p>
