I'm try to make a blocking network call on iOS but app either crashes (because of wrong thread access) or hang (because you can't block main thread and schedule download on the same thread simultaneously like in https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlinconf-spinner/blob/master/kotlin-native/samples/fullstack/clients/ios/src/main/kotlin/platformUtils.kt#L72). Should I use workers or there is some simpler way?

To run job in async mode take a look at https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-native/blob/master/samples/objc/src/main/kotlin/Window.kt
