If Google does then so does Apple?
I don’t fully understand this. If you want your app on a store front, you play by their rules or provide direct alternatives.
The problem is, they can’t provide a direct alternative. On Apple they straight can’t sideload, and on Android Google has intentionally made the experience shitty and dangerous to discourage it.
“Apple has better lawyers and protection” basically. The fact that Apple’s lock down is still a thing just boggles my mind, especially post windows internet explorer world.
In the free world outside Usa, Apple gets more legal attacks for that than Google.
