With the US v Apple antitrust lawsuit news (and it’s about time), I figured
looking back to the last landmark antitrust case, US v Microsoft, would be
useful to understand what might happen in the future.

The problem:

Microsoft owns Windows, and Windows is the only reasonable operating system any
OEM (partners like HP, Dell, etc) can ship on a consumer PC. In other words,
it’s a monopoly.

Microsoft also owns Internet Explorer, and they saw the coming of the internet
as a huge threat to Windows, unless they acted to keep control. They missed the
deadline to release IE for Windows 95, so they bundled it for free with
everything they could, including Office and Microsoft Plus! (often came bundled
with home PCs). Worth noting Netscape was a paid product until this point.

Windows 95 was revised twice with more extensive IE integration, the final 95
“C” and its bundled IE 4 changing it from a standalone program to a
deeply-integrated core feature. It changed how Explorer windows worked entirely
- they were now literally IE windows. It changed the desktop so you could add
webpages to it (Active Desktop). One of those, enabled by default, was the
Channels Bar, which linked to news orgs that paid to be listed.

It also added hundreds of new APIs, not all of which had anything to do with IE.
Now Microsoft was strongarming developers into distributing IE 4 for them,
requiring their customers to have it installed for their app to work. On top of
that, Microsoft’s OEM program changed its rules such that only the latest
revision of Windows 95 could be preinstalled, the latest IE must also be
preinstalled, and direct competitors to Microsoft flagship products (Netscape,
WordPerfect, Lotus, etc) are not allowed. They also told OEMs to stop bundling
their own simplified replacements of the Windows 95 desktop, and instead created
Microsoft Bob, and we know how well that one went.

At least with Windows 95, you had the option to use the retail “A” release and
avoid IE. With Windows 98, IE 4 was preinstalled with all features enabled.
Microsoft toned it down a notch with IE 5 in Windows 98 Second Edition, but the
damage was already done.

Does this sound familiar at all?

Apple checks a lot of boxes similar to Microsoft here. You can see how a
compelling case could be made that Apple doesn’t allow competitors to key
features such as Safari and the App Store on iOS, doesn’t allow developers to
use a payment service other than Apple’s own, doesn’t want developers to raise
prices by 30% or disclose to users that 30% goes to Apple, restricts access to
certain features only to developers that are favorable to them, and are known to
retaliate against those they don’t like (see Spotify). It’s harder to argue
because there’s millions of developers and customers being directly individually
affected, rather than only a few dozen OEM partners, but it could be done. In
other words, Apple restricts the user, because there is no middleman (the OEM)
to apply restrictive contract terms to.

The outcome:

So what happened with Microsoft, and what could possibly happen with Apple?
After being found guilty of monopolisation and illegal tying/exclusivity
tactics, some of the usual legal back and forth of appealing and whatever, the
DOJ and Microsoft agreed to settle, with the terms being:

1. Microsoft must allow OEMs to preinstall any software they want.

2. Microsoft can build “middleware” features into Windows, but OEMs must be
able to uninstall them in favor of competitors’ offerings.

3. Microsoft must publicly release documentation for certain private Windows
APIs introduced by IE.

4. Microsoft must not retaliate against OEMs that do things they don’t like
(when it’s fully within their contract rights).

5. Microsoft was banned from making exclusivity deals with OEMs and developers.

6. Microsoft’s actions would be overseen by a committee for 10 years.

I sure hope to see an outcome like this for Apple. It’s time to see them change,
and their recent actions have only reinforced that they can only be made to
change by force of the law, and constant oversight to keep them in line.

👉 “Sideloading, a feature unfamiliar to Apple users, could generate perplexity
and lead to misplaced criticism of Apple.”

This is the only argument I think holds weight, but it really depends how things
pan out in the community with developer and user tools for sideloading, and how
much Apple feels like building out the feature. Apple has responsibility here to
ensure the user experience works as expected, isn’t confusing, and explains the
risks and benefits to users in a balanced, unbiased way. I would point out that
if they don’t do these things well, it may be intentional sabotage so they can
say “see? We told you sideloading is a user experience and security nightmare!”

👉 “Sideloaded apps may lead to increased battery drain.”

The operating system is responsible for enforcing policies such as battery life
management, not App Review. If an app can drain battery, that’s an iOS bug that
needs to be fixed. This also applies to other common concerns, such as whether
apps can bypass permission prompts - they can’t, because this is enforced by
code, not humans.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conclusion: There most definitely can be arguments against sideloading, but
these aren’t it. My personal opinion is that the only argument will be whether
the feature is built effectively enough to keep users informed of risks and to
protect them from malware if it does arise, and how much of a gap there is in
cloud functionality such as iCloud in sideloaded apps. iCloud and push
notifications are supported in non-App Store macOS apps, so I’d expect they
should be supported in non-App Store iOS apps too.

Most of the risk is up to whether Apple feels like building the feature well, or
if they’re just doing the bare minimum to meet the letter of the law and prove a
point. It really entirely remains to be seen what ends up holding true, and we
can only speculate on these details right now.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adam Demasi @ Chariz , @kirb

I won’t link to the original person who wrote this, because it’s clearly
engagement bait. But let’s break down falsehoods about the world outside of the
App Store, because you’ll be seeing a lot more FUD about sideloading as the
deadline nears for Apple to comply with the EU DMA:

(TL;DR at the bottom)

👉 “When developers sideload their apps, they don’t have access to Apple’s tools
and resources to optimize their apps for iOS. This can lead to apps that are
slower, less responsive, and have less polished animations.”

I develop the https://newterm.app command line terminal and @zebra app store for
jailbroken iPhones. Both are developed using Xcode and Apple’s current
frameworks. NewTerm extensively uses SwiftUI. Neither app has performance
issues.

👉 “Apple releases new APIs with each new version of iOS. Sideloaded apps may
not be updated to support the latest APIs, which means that they may not be able
to take advantage of new features and functionality.”

The latest SDK always works fine. The limiting factor is often rather that the
app’s codebase isn’t ready for a newer SDK, due to new breaking behavior Apple
introduced. This is an issue as old as time itself, and affects any platform
including iOS, macOS, Android, Windows, and Linux, whether App Store or not.
It’s just necessary for platforms to break compatibility sometimes. That said,
even if you use an old SDK, you can still define and use functions from newer
SDKs.

👉 “Sideloaded apps may not have the same level of quality control as App Store
apps. App Store apps are reviewed by Apple before they are made available to
users.”

This is a very common misconception. Apple doesn’t review apps for quality, they
review them for violations of their rules. Even then, they miss many clear
scams. There are replies in the original thread from app devs who had experience
releasing a broken build that App Review completely missed.

https://theverge.com/2021/4/21/22385859/apple-app-store-scams-fraud-review-enforcement-top-grossing-kosta-eleftheriou

👉 “Sideloaded apps are not subject to this same level of review, which means
that they may be more likely to contain bugs, security vulnerabilities, or other
problems.”

As with the last one, App Review isn’t a security audit. If you’ve had an app
rejected before, you’ll know the reviewers aren’t technical people. The security
of your code is your responsibility, and companies who can afford it do
regularly get their code professionally tested for security issues. I would also
point out that full jailbreak apps were approved on the App Store multiple times
in the past. The apps were pulled only after they got media attention.

https://9to5mac.com/2016/08/29/reddit-jailbreak-dribbble-client-app-store/

👉 “A sideloaded app may not be able to take advantage of the new Metal 3
graphics API in iOS 17, resulting in less impressive graphics and performance.”

You would be surprised to peek under the hood and find that plenty of apps you
use every day, ones that feel current and do everything in ways you expect, in
fact use old APIs in some cases. Being approved on the App Store has nothing to
do with how “current” your codebase is. Apps are even still allowed to use
OpenGL, which was deprecated by Apple in 2018, and was clearly on its way out
since 2014.

👉 “A sideloaded app may not be as well-designed as an App Store app, making it
more difficult to use and navigate.”

There are absolutely terrible apps on the App Store, including from companies
that have plenty of money to hire a UI/UX design firm. You’ve definitely used at
least a few apps like this and know what I’m talking about. Conversely, there
are some incredibly polished apps/tweaks released in the jailbreak community, or
even just outside of the App Store on macOS. Would you consider Chrome, Discord,
Visual Studio Code, VLC, etc etc. poorly designed and hard to use because
they’re not in the App Store? How you install an app has no bearing on its
quality.

👉 “A sideloaded app may contain more bugs than an App Store app, leading to
crashes and other unexpected behavior.”

Like I said earlier, App Review aren’t QA testers for every app to ever exist.
It’s always been the developer’s responsibility to write high quality code and
catch any bugs in it. You also really don’t want to waste time waiting hours or
days for Apple to reject your app, when you can pass a build over to your QA
testers (or perhaps friends, family, and TestFlight for indie devs) and get far
higher quality feedback from people who actually use your app and know what to
expect.

The Chariz team is saddened to learn that Lachlan Abbott, better known as
LaughingQuoll, has passed away at 22.

His relationship to our team was instrumental to our success. Chariz, as it
stands today, would not exist without his encouraging words, and his commitment
to help the platform when it was in a difficult position by launching his tweaks
Noctis Neo, Siliqua Pro, and Watermelon with us. He was a wonderful, creative
member of the jailbreak community, and an incredible friend of ours. He will be
sorely missed.

If you would like to make a donation in his memory, his family has suggested the
Friends of the Earths Strzelecki Koala Action Team.

Cephei 2.0 is a major refactor, exclusively supporting rootless jailbreaks. It
removes numerous code paths that stayed around for compatibility with old tweaks
or iOS releases, and is built to run on the new ElleKit hooking platform. Cephei
1.x will continue to be supported for rootful jailbreaks on iOS 15.

Most, but not all, tweaks should already work with Cephei 2. Please don’t expect
tweaks converted from rootful to rootless to work. The developers of these
tweaks will most likely need to release a rootless update if there are any
crashes.

Since we know a lot of people are waiting on a Cephei update: It’s currently
being tested with a group of developers so we can iron out bugs before release.
Shouldn’t be too far off now!

There’s also an issue with the Alderis 1.2.1 release on A12+ devices,
annoyingly. I was pretty sure it worked… oh well. A fix for that is also
forthcoming.

Dopamine 1.0 (formerly Fugu15 Max) has been released! This is a jailbreak for
iOS 15.0 - 15.4.1 on iPhone XS and newer (A12 - A15 and M1 devices), based on
some truly incredible work by @opa334, @evelyne, Linus Henze, and others.

Going forward, we’re going to suggest users of XinaA15 upgrade to Dopamine,
because it has far fewer compatibility issues and should be substantially more
stable. We know it’s annoying not all tweaks work yet, but we also hope this
release will prod more of your favorite tweak developers to release updates for
rootless jailbreaks, which is how all jailbreaks will be going forward.

🔔 Chariz now supports both traditional and rootless packages for developers to
upload on their submissions. This means that users can expect to see rootless
versions of their favorite packages as more developers start releasing them.

Stay tuned for updates!

Developers: When submitting packages to us, you’ll be able to upload a rootless
and rootful variant of your package. We’ve sent an internal announcement
providing more in-depth details about rootless support and other changes.

🧑‍💻 New library for tweak developers on Chariz: Comet by Ginsu.

Comet allows tweak settings screens to be written using SwiftUI. I personally
haven’t used this yet, but it looks extremely promising! SwiftUI is definitely
the future of tweak settings. No more of those ugly, clunky specifier plists 😉
Really hoping to see some delightfully designed tweak settings experiences from
this.

Some time passed since I wrote this post, and this week went a bit crazy with my
attention being diverted in so many different places, so just updating
(especially now that I can write 5000 characters in markdown):

* 👉 Zebra 1.1.30 – fixing a few things I broke in 1.1.29.

Running behind when I really wanted this to release, but it’s still coming!
This release also now supports searching for a single character in
non-English languages – this is pretty important for languages such as
Chinese – along with some various bug fixes.

* ⚪️ Cephei 1.18 – rootless support.

It pretty much all works, with the exception of features that try to grab
info from the dpkg status file, such as the package header cell, on Xina15.
I’ll also be adding a built-in cell for linking to Mastodon profiles,
because, well… it’s not exactly like I have much confidence in the direction
the bird app is going right now.

* ⚪️ Alderis 1.2.2 – rootless support.

Effectively I’ll just be creating a build for iphoneos-arm64 (proper rootless
jailbreaks), since 1.2.2 works perfectly on iOS 15 and 16 under
non-rootless/Xina15.

* ⚪️ NewTerm 3 beta 1 – near-total rewrite.

Super excited for this! No doubt the most popular request I’ve been hearing
over and over 😁 NewTerm 3 uses a more up-to-date terminal emulator framework
supporting modern features. Just need to finish up a few things I left
unfinished so I can start releasing official betas.

* ⚪️ Zebra 1.1.31 – Xina15 support.

The way Xina15 has set up APT (or rather, not set it up) is very awkward, so
all package managers needed to be updated to support it. I put this off for a
bit so some of the awkward problems with it could be figured out first, and
things start settling down to something stable I can work against. I feel
we’re in a good position with it now, so I’m going to go ahead and implement
this support soon.

* ⚪️ Zebra 2

This is a longer-term thing, because it’s a very different beast (different
horse?) from Zebra 1. I really hope we can start launching betas of Zebra 2
soon! If you haven’t seen it, check out our unveiling of the UI from a few
months ago.

Real busy on iOS stuff this week, just wanted to lay out an idea of what’s going
on (mostly for my own sake): ✅ Zebra 1.1.29 – iOS 15 – 16 support, rootless
support, security fix, bug fixes 👉 Zebra 1.1.30 – fixing a few things I broke
in 1.1.29 ⚪️ Cephei 1.18 – rootless support ⚪️ Alderis 1.2.2 – rootless support
⚪️ NewTerm 3 beta 1 – near-total rewrite, super excited for this! ⚪️ Zebra
1.1.31 – XinaA15 support, holding off for bugfixes from Xina first ⚪️ Continue
working on Zebra 2 slowly over time

👋 Hello to everyone who’s new to Mastodon and the fediverse! Just wanted to
post to get the word out that we’re on here.

Chariz helps you find apps and utilities to improve your life, and helps you
support the developers that build your favorite apps.

We’re one of the top sources for jailbreak tweaks — special kinds of programs
that add handy enhancements to iOS that aren’t possible within the App Store.
You can customise your device exactly how you want it, and even access the
underlying Unix operating system to use your device to its full potential. We’re
glad to support an incredibly innovative community that loves Apple’s devices,
and has proven the value of open operating systems ever since the first iPhone.

Seems interesting? Give us a follow!

If you were having trouble installing some packages because of a conflict with
the “Orion Runtime (iOS 12 – 13)” package, we’ve fixed the issue. Refresh your
package manager, and you should now be able to install those packages.

👋 Hi again friends! If you’re on iOS 15 with the XinaA15 jailbreak, there’s now
an update to Sileo with support for this jailbreak. You can find instructions
here. (We also have a link to this on our package detail pages in Sileo for your
convenience.)

Hi everyone! Just a quick update from us on the iOS 15 jailbreaks.

We’re starting to accept updates from developers for iOS 15, but with the caveat
that the jailbreaks that are currently released for it, palera1n and XinaA15,
are quite incomplete. This is unlike our usual policy where we wait until a
final working jailbreak has been released to start accepting updates, but this
year has obviously been a different one, and we want to help push things along
as soon as possible.

Please be patient with things at the moment, not everything works properly just
yet. Particularly, you won’t be able to download paid packages yet, as there is
some issue with Zebra and Sileo’s ability to store logins in the keychain (iOS’s
encrypted password storage) that both projects are currently looking into.

There is some more info about the state of things from this post on
/r/jailbreak.

You can catch us on Discord or post on /r/jailbreak if you have any questions.
Although, if the question is “should I jailbreak yet?”, the answer is most
likely not yet, unless you’re willing to try some things that aren’t quite ready
yet.

Chariz on the fediverse?

WHAT IS JAILBREAKING?

Go beyond apps and do whatever you want with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Chariz helps you discover useful apps that aren’t possible within the App Store,
customise your device exactly how you want it, and even access the underlying
Unix operating system to use your device to its full potential.

Jailbreaking is free and legal. If you change your mind, it’s easy to uninstall.
