M1 Macs can once again install any iOS app

A few days ago, Apple made it impossible to install iOS applications on Mac computers with an M1 chip outside of the Mac App Store. You should know that M1 Macs running macOS Big Sur support iOS applications without any problem. But until Apple blocked it, you had to take advantage of third-party applications like iMazing in order to install iOS applications unauthorized for operation on Mac, on your Mac M1, by searching for the .ipa file of the software in question.

This made it possible, for example, to launch an iOS app like Instagram on your computer.

Subsequently, therefore, the Cupertino company made this maneuver impossible. But some users have realized that for a few hours, the procedure has been possible again without blocking from the American giant.

Thus, it is tonew possibility to install any iOS application on your Mac M1, including, therefore, all iOS applications for which the developers have clearly indicated that they do not want to appear on the Mac App Store so as not to be used on Mac. Very often, the reason for this refusal on the part of developers comes from the fact that a Mac version dedicated to the same service already exists.

As our colleagues at 9to5Mac indicate, however, this unblocking of Apple should not last long given that it does not respect the wishes of application creators. In the end, everything should return to normal in the coming days. Until then, you can always take the opportunity to install iOS applications on your Mac M1 that you miss on Mac, such as Instagram, but why not try it with certain games too.
