- Apple has officially announced that Progressive Web Apps, or PWAs, will no longer be supported in the EU starting iOS 17.4. This video shows what happens to already installed PWAs when opened for the first time after upgrading to iOS 17.4 RC. This only affects iOS users. iPadOS will continue to support PWAs, for now.

iOS 17.4 is expected to be released during the first week of March 2024. This update includes a lot of changes that Apple had to deliver in order to comply with the new DMA regulations that are going to take effect on March 7, 2024.

More information on why Apple has decided to stop supporting PWAs in the EU:
"EU users will be able to continue accessing websites directly from their Home Screen through a bookmark with minimal impact to their functionality. We expect this change to affect a small number of users. Still, we regret any impact this change - that was made as part of the work to comply with the DMA - may have on developers of Home Screen web apps and our users."

UPDATE: Apple retracted the decision. PWAs are enabled in the public release of iOS 17.4

this an absolute bummer I was about to transform my web app into pwa...
Didn’t apple backtrack on breaking pwa behaviour as long as you chose safari as the browser?
Yes!
nice music
Apple needs to be given fines
This should be illegal
Imagine having spent months building such a robust PWA framework and then just removing it for no valid reason. From a developer stand point, duck apple
This is why I won’t upgrade
Apple walked back the decision. PWAs work on the final and public release. More in the description. Upgrade your iPhone.
Is this the Simulator-screen of an iPhone 4 (Ratio 3:4)? Don't you dramatize a little? ;)
This is an iPhone SE. The video contained facts about what users and developers should expect in iOS 17.4. There's no drama, unless you refer to deleting Apple Music and replacing it with Spotify. That was done for fun 😎
Apple wiping data from users is not to dramatize? Just wait until all those schools, governments and non-profits organizations apps that use web apps have their settings removed. Imagine an email app, all your emails gone, a messaging app, all your history gone, a text app, all your written files wiped... Pretty dramatic for Apple to erase data without a warning.
