Apple Approves UTM SE: First PC Emulator for iOS
Apple approves the first official PC emulator for iOS – after previously rejecting it 🔗
Apple has approved the UTM SE app, the first official PC emulator for iOS, after previously rejecting it. The app allows users to run various versions of Windows, as well as selected Linux and macOS versions on iPhones, iPads, and Apple Vision Pro headsets. The change in approval may be due to a shift in Apple's policies or improvements in the app itself. This move comes as Apple faces pressure to reduce gatekeeping and increase user choice, as seen with the allowance of third-party app stores for the iPhone in the EU. UTM SE is also available through the AltStore for free, without in-app purchases.
