[–] narc0tic_bird@lemm.ee 18 points 2 years ago (3 children) If you miss the word "Web" in the title: It allowed that since iOS 17.4, but 18.2 will also allow these apps to as Home Screen icons/PWAs. I've yet to find a browser for iOS with a custom engine though. permalink fedilink source hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] mrfriki@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) Yeah, still waiting for my Firefox + ublock on iOS, guess I’ll have to wait until my iPad dies and buy an Android tablet instead. permalink fedilink source parent [–] kill_dash_nine@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago That's part of the problem. I had seen on a thread where someone was asking if that would mean a mobile version of a browser, the response from some of the devs was "no for now" seeing as it is only the EU and that it would be a lot of work to do for a small portion of a potential user base. permalink fedilink source parent [–] CrashOverride@moth.social -2 points 2 years ago @narc0tic_bird @Sunshine only in the EU, thankfully. permalink fedilink source parent
