In a statement released on its developer page, Apple announced it has changed its mind regarding Home Screen web apps. While the company earlier said it would no longer allow web apps as of iOS 17.4, the company has backpedaled and will allow Home Screen apps to be installed on EU iOS devices.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Apple-backpedals-on-decision-to-kill-Home-Screen-web-apps-in-EU.809180.0.html
"This support means Home Screen web apps continue to be built directly on WebKit and its security architecture, and align with the security and privacy model for native apps on iOS."
it's not 'backpedaling', it's another 'fu eu', an ultimatum - pwa stay locked to webkit or are gone
