📱 Brazil Orders Third-Party iOS Apps

Brazilian federal court has ordered Apple to allow app sideloading on iOS devices within 90 days, challenging the company's longstanding App Store policies and potentially setting a precedent for other countries.

➡️ Apple faces daily fines exceeding $40,000 if it fails to adhere to the ruling;
