Apple Geofences Third-Party Browser Engine Development and Testing on iOS to EU
May 17, 2024, 04:21 PM
Apple has implemented geofencing to limit the development and testing of third-party browser engines to devices physically located within the European Union. This move is in response to European law that requires Apple to allow third-party browser engines on iOS devices.

It is now impossible for developers to test third-party web engines outside the EU.
