Apple has seen Web Apps as potential threat to the AppStore since 2011.

Apple execs in email titled "HTML5 Poses Threat to Flash and the AppStore" say "I think someday we will see a challenge from ... a web based solution"

Email from Philip Schiller to Eddy Cue that says “Food for thought: Do we think our 30/70% split will last forever? While I am a staunch supporter of the 30/70% split and keeping it simple and consistent across our stores, I don’t think 30/70 will last unchanged forever. I think someday we will see a challenge from another platform or a web based solution to want to adjust our model”

In a massive blow to competition Apple has managed to shut the CMA's investigation into mobile browsers on a legal technicality.

One of the key remedies proposed was forcing Apple to allow rival browsers makers to port their real browsers to iOS.

Apple is not “considering”,they are being compelled by law to support third party browser engines under the 🇪🇺EU’s Digital Markets Act.

Apple should end its blatant anti-competitive behavior worldwide,not just in the EU.

If not @OpenWebAdvocacy will fight in each jurisdiction.

@owa This would be great! I’d love to use a real Gecko-based #firefox on iPhone and have it work well with auto fill, NFC security keys, etc.
