You aren’t making sense. How does it grant safari an advantage if no browser has PWAs?
- commoner 3y agoAs the article says, Apple is changing iOS in the EU to prevent non-Safari browsers from adding PWA icon links to the home screen, making this feature exclusive to Safari (and granting Safari an anticompetitive advantage). Apple did not remove PWAs in Safari, but they removed the ability for PWAs to be displayed full-screen in Safari in the EU.
- kj99 3y agoWrong. They did remove PWAs in safari. The old icons just become links with no special PWA features, and new ones can't be created.
- commoner 3y agoNothing in the article says that new PWA links can't be created in Safari. Read carefully: > PWAs can’t be linked to alternative browsers. If the situation that you think is happening were true, the article would simply say that Apple removed PWA links from iOS, instead of specifically saying that the removal applies to alternative (non-Safari) browsers on iOS.
