All of this technically falls under the gatekeeping law, so Apple's hand may actually be forced here. WebKit's limitations prevent developers from bringing features that are available on other platforms to iOS. Even the UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) criticized Apple and Google for their browser's duopoly. But what does this have to do with browsers being restricted to WebKit? Browser makers and web developers have found the restriction to be anticompetitive. The law comes in to effect in 2024, and Apple is preparing to allow other app stores on its devices. It will also provide developers some relief, as they could host their apps elsewhere, without paying a 30% commission fee to Apple.

A month ago, the EU passed a law called the Digital Markets Act, that requires gatekeepers (controllers of large online platforms) including Apple, Microsoft, and Google, to allow users to install apps from third-party sources. We can thank the European Union for that. Let's not jump to conclusions too quickly, eh? Or could it see that as an app downloading scripts and restrict them? If so, Mozilla could bypass this by bundling uBlock Origin with Firefox. It remains to be seen whether Apple will allow web browsers to support extensions. Hopefully, Vivaldi will show up to the party too. This could finally allow Mozilla to use its Gecko engine for Firefox on iOS, and similarly Google's Blink engine for Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Opera, Brave, etc. Mark Gurman's article on Bloomberg (paywalled), which was spotted by Macrumors, says that Apple is considering removing the requirement for web browsers on iOS and iPadOS. This bizarre restriction, imposed by the company, could be revoked. Why? For security reasons, that's what the Cupertino company claims, that its engine and its sandbox restrictions are more secure than others. As you may know, all web browsers on iPhones and iPads are based on the WebKit engine, including Apple's Safari app.
