And looks like the first one is already stolen with a bunch of ad trackers added. That’s disappointing.
And utterly unsurprising
iPhone is slowly becoming more like android, and android is slowly becoming more like iphone
Riley Testut is right, but he’s kind of bitching, he can just release GBA4iOS on the App Store and people will use it instead of that crap filled with ads. What if he just had summited GBA4iOS to the App Store before this developer? Oh I know why, because he’s trying to get his AltStore approved and wanted to have GBA4iOS exclusively there to drive people into it.
Isn’t the other issue that alternative app stores are only available in the EU? So even with the approval of emulators it would still be inaccessible to the US since Riley is only going to release it on altstore.
That’s a thing as well yes. Maybe he’s betting that Apple will eventually make alternative app stores also available on the US, who knows. The fact is that he seems to be clearly holding back the emulator.
No, since AltStore is already able to install on your iPhone for years via sideloading
And the documentation to do so: https://faq.altstore.io

Which he has every right to do so.
Yes, he does. But he also spend years complaining that Apple wasn’t allowing him to publish the emulator and then suddenly when Apple decides to allow it instead of going for it he seems to be focusing all his efforts into creating an alternative app store.
To me it looks like he wasn’t expecting anyone for fork and publish his work and instead he could launch his own app store and use the emulator as a way to get people into it… almost as “greedy” as Apple.
This hurts developers (especially small ones) and shows why competition is needed.
I totally agree with you, but that besides the point here. Actually I believe everyone should be able to load any app into without any certificates, validation, stores etc.

Why is there no easy way to report stuff like this in the App Store? Apple puts almost all its eggs in the preemptive review basket, and that’s never going to be good enough.
This is the other side of OSS. As long as the clones share their source code too, this is completely legal.
