Apple is working on allowing users in the European Union to sideload iPhone apps onto the company’s smartphones, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman states in his weekly newsletter. The ability to install apps that are not hosted on Apple’s own App Store will make its way to iPhone owners for the first time, as the company has to adhere to recent EU regulations. The ability to sideload apps is not expected to roll out to users in other regions, unlike Google’s Android operating system.
In the subscriber-only version of his weekly Power On newsletter (via MacRumors), Gurman states that iPhone users in the EU will be allowed to sideload apps in H1 2024, allowing users to install apps that aren’t allowed on the App Store. The claim contradicts a recent report that stated iOS 17.2 could add support for sideloading for EU residents when it arrives next month, but it appears that the code that was spotted at the time was related to managed devices for organisations.
