I cannot force apps to open in a browser vs their in-app browser (which is Safari). This in-app browser has a separate cookie jar and history. It also allows draconius tracking, as demonstrated by TikTok [1].
I cannot set the default maps handler, every address opens up in Maps, unless the app has built-in provisions for Waze / Google Maps.
I can not set another application as the iCal handler. My work forces me to use Outlook, yet when I tap an iCal link it opens up in Calendar.
I can't uninstall Photos. I am forced to use THEIR application which only supports iCloud as their backup system which is incompatible with my 'don't store shit in the cloud'. I cannot integrate it with Synology Photos or with whatever I choose.
I cannot change the Control center's links / buttons. The Home buttons point to their walled-garden HomeKit. The notes button only works with their notes. I cannot make it open OneNote.
As a developer I need to request Apple to enable certain entitlements to use in my application for them to consider me 'worthy'.
