Apple Reverses Decision on iPhone Web Apps in EU

Apple Backtracks on Plan to Remove Support for Web Apps on iPhone Home Screen in EU

Apple has reversed its decision to eliminate support for web apps on the iPhone home screen in the European Union (EU), the company announced this week. This change comes after the European Commission raised concerns about the potential impact of removing web apps. In an update to an iOS developer page, Apple stated that it will retain the current web app functionality following feedback from users. However, the tech giant clarified that web apps must still be built with its own WebKit engine used in Safari, as opposed to alternative browser engines.
