Why are Reddit people so pressed with this? I say Reddit people because I’ve never actually met any person that swore they just needed side loading on iPhone and my android buddies only mention it to sound cool, but never actually use it.
It’s definitely a niche thing but I’d love to have emulators on my phone.
And there have been a few other instances where I’d like to do something not allowed by the App Store. My electric scooter has lots of unofficial Android apps that let you change default settings by uploading custom firmware. But those apps are not allowed on iOS. So I would have to borrow an Android device to do it.
Yes it’s niche but it’s pretty annoying for those use-cases that are simply banned by Apple.
Let's be honest we all just wanna sideload so we can play Pokemon randomizer nuclockes on our iPhones
