App sandboxing protects you from apps trying to access your information without your say-so, I'm not advocating for Apple to allow these third party apps to bypass the sandbox.
- kolinko 3y agoIs there a platform that managed to implement a decent sandbox without a review process a’la Apple? Android definitely fails in this aspect, if you look at stats on viruses etc.
- rekoil 3y agoThe sandbox and review processes are completely separate from each other. Technically if the review process was flawless Apple wouldn't need a sandbox in iOS. Yeah sure, things that attempt to break out of the sandbox will not be caught before ending up running on a users phone, but this also gives Apple somewhere to learn about novel sandbox escaping techniques from, so they can eventually patch them.
