Would that not mean you can't install any browser other than Safari? Because I'm running Firefox right now on iOS. Or does "ban" mean something else in this context?


If your point is that you can run a Webkit-based browser branded as Firefox, you are correct.

However, it's not using Gecko, so it's not actually Firefox. It's a browser whose web capabilities are controlled by Apple rather than Mozilla.


Interesting! I was not aware of this.
