| Apple plans to support the use of virtual external applications on its devices |
A recent Bloomberg report shows that Apple's next plan supports replacing virtual applications on its mobile devices with external applications.
Apple is preparing to support external applications on its mobile devices with HomePod iPhones, iPads, and Speakers, as virtual applications on the company's devices can be replaced by competing third-party applications.
Apple's mobile system has been a closed system since the launch of the Apple App Store in 2008 because the tech giant does not allow the replacement of virtual applications installed on its devices with competing third-party alternatives, creating competition apps.
On the other hand, some apps that compete for the standard Apple app do not offer the same Apple experience. For example, if you click a link sent to iPad or iPhone, Safari will automatically open to display the page, one of the features that Chrome and Firefox don't offer.
For example, if an iPhone email link is clicked, the user will also be moved to the Apple Mail app without being able to switch to a competing app.
The source of the leak confirmed that Apple held a meeting to discuss the change that allowed the company's mobile device users to move to virtual external services, so the company began to ease restrictions on its mobile devices in recent years, imposed devices and the company's use of external devices reduced. Music apps are limited to their mobile devices.
