Obtaining SSID string in iOS 9

I have an in-house iPhone app that displays the SSID of the connected WiFi ad-hoc network on the UI.

I've been using these simple steps to get a network info dictionary:
  CNCopySupportedInterfaces()
  CFArrayGetValueAtIndex()
  CNCopyCurrentNetworkInfo()

In iOS 9, the above has been deprecated in favor the new NEHotspotHelper class. My app doesn't want/need to be a 'hotspot helper', I just would like to obtain the current network's SSID string, if any. Using NEHotspotHelper seems like tremendous overkill (plus having to register the app as a 'hotspot helper') just to do this. Is there a simpler way?

-Carl
