    I am in the camp that there is a benefit to the managed store. Since moving family members to iOS devices the number of times they have loaded malware or asked me for help installing ANYTHING dropped to zero.

    Should techies be able to side load if they want? Sure, should that be a primary install method? No.

    Epic isn’t wrong about Apples payment requirements being BS, but Epic also isn’t exactly a hero here.

    Will be interesting to see how this pissing match plays out over time.

    Should you be able to use other payment providers outside of apple pay YES!

    Should you be able to install other APP stores on an iPhone? Not sure.









    • Why? this is important as it will probably eliminate some options.
    • What? What do you expect? Do you have specific clients you want to work (iOS mail app?, Samsung mail app? etc), are you good with a 3rd party app? Web interface only? Do you have or want a custom domain or are you migration to @newcompanyhostingme.com?
    • Price? What is your budget? Outside a hand full of options that sell your info to be free almost everything else has a cost.
