Hand on heart, even if the option to side load apps goes worldwide, I’m likely gonna stick with the App Store versions. I get daily spam emails and phone calls, I dont need another thing posing even more of a security risk and exposing my data to even more companies — thanks.
It doesn’t matter, it still impacts the security of your device.
As things stand now, iOS wholly and completely rejects any apps that aren’t signed by Apple.
In the future, it won’t. It becomes far easier for someone to get a malicious app on your phone.
What do you mean by “iOS wholly and completely rejects any apps that aren’t signed by Apple”? I have sideloaded for ~10 years and still do so to this day. My apps work perfectly fine and it’s been years since I’ve had any issues with licenses getting revoked etc.
