Why does Apple allow Expo apps on the App Store when they effectively bypass App Review? Doesn't this go against their own policies?
I say that as someone who uses Expo precisely for this reason.
- trevor-e 2y agoIt's definitely a very gray area within Apple's policy. Shorebird (Flutter OTA updates) describes it best in their FAQ (https://docs.shorebird.dev/faq/#does-shorebird-comply-with-app-store-guidelines https://docs.shorebird.dev/faq/#does-shorebird-comply-with-a...). It seems to be as long as you don't significantly alter the primary purpose of the app, then it's "allowed". But that's a very broad interpretation and puts native Swift apps at a huge disadvantage.
