As soon as google starts removing sideloaded apps forcefully without play protect, will be the time when Apples market share increases.

Apk sideloading freedom is the only major difference left between Android and iOS

You realize that on Apple you can never have these apps at all?

If google removes them retroactively from your device or blocks them from being used what’s the difference?

[-] WarmApplePieShrek@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 9 months ago

you can hide from google and install it anyway. You can't hide from apple. They control 100% of your device

AltStore. I have a torrent client and ad-free native YouTube client uYouPlus on my iPhone sideloaded. Running the latest version of iOS. No problems.

Dev account right? Normally you can only do 3 apps for free

[-] sardon@infosec.pub 2 points 9 months ago

3 for free, that’s right. I only have 3 installed so no dev account necessary.

Won't Apple be forced to allow sideloading apps in the future?
