Apple banned this app for years. It's now America's No. 1 iPhone app.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/04/30/delta-emulator-iphone-apple-antitrust/Apple had banned apps like it for years but un-banned them this month
without much explanation. Delta's creators say growing anti-monopoly
pressures were responsible for Apple's flip-flop.
https://faq.deltaemulator.com/Apple is loosening its App Store restrictions and opening the marketplace
up to retro game emulators. In an update on Friday, Apple announced that
game emulators can come to the App Store globally and offer downloadable
games.
Game emulators have long been banned from iOS, leaving iPhone owners in
search of workarounds via jailbreaking or other workarounds. They're also
one of the key reasons, so far, that iPhone owners in the European Union
might check out third-party app stores now that they're allowed in the
region. Apple's change today could head that off.
