iPhone maker Apple has yet again made changes to its policies and App Stores across the EU.
The company is now working on an expansion of default app controls, allowing for first-party app removal, and updates for users’ browser screens.
While we did see the browser choice screen included in the EU during this year’s start, we now see another update. Users get to choose which default browser they want on their browser screen across different devices.
The feature comes into play when users install the update and launch Safari. However, this choice screen will not apply to those who have another browser set as their default choice. It will be on display only once per device and therefore has nothing to do with users.
If users are switching to new devices, they get the feature if their former default browser is Safari. Meanwhile, Apple also shared some changes to the browser screen design. This includes no detailed data on the page of the App Store for the browser. Apple highlighted a host of other changes related to browser screens as well which can be found on its website
Users can also expect to see changes made to default app settings. The new update for iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 will entail Default Apps where users manage default settings. Before, it was restricted to mailing apps, a marketplace, and a few contactless platforms. Now, the features are being expanded to calls, messages, keyboards, filters for call spam, and more. Similarly, Apple hopes to add more support for navigation and translation apps as well.
Apple will also enable another new change that gives users the chance to delete apps. This includes Camera, Safari platforms, Photos, Messages, and even its App Store. It will be possible after a new software update arrives during the latter part of this year.
