It sounds like you're expressing frustration with Apple's policies regarding sideloading (installing apps from outside of the App Store) and third-party app stores on iOS devices. Apple has been at the center of controversy surrounding these issues in Europe, particularly with regards to the EU's Digital Markets Act. The act aims to promote competition and fairness in the digital market, and some see Apple's policies as anticompetitive. Some arguments against sideloading and third-party app stores include concerns about: * **Security**: Installing apps from outside of the App Store can increase the risk of malware and other security threats. * **Quality control**: The App Store has a strict review process to ensure that apps meet certain standards, which can be compromised when installing apps from unknown sources. Others argue that these policies stifle competition and innovation, as they limit developers' ability to create and distribute their own apps. This can lead to: * **Lack of choice**: Users may not have access to alternative app stores or the apps they want, forcing them to use Apple's ecosystem. * **Innovation suppression**: Developers might be discouraged from creating apps that don't meet Apple's guidelines, leading to a lack of innovation and diversity in the market.
