    Can you even (easily) install custom apps on iOS? The last thing I remember is it being a huge pain in the butt…

      If you’re in the EU there is now at least one alternative app store. iOS hasn’t opened up anywhere else in the world AFAIK, so it’s still a pain for everyone else. You used to be able to use the AltStore without jailbreaking iOS (maybe you still can), but the process was annoying and didn’t feel particularly secure as you had to provide your Apple account details.

        Apple just recently made it impossible to install one torrent client from the Alt-store. They’re not any better than what Google is planning.
