What could Apple force app developers to do that would improve your iOS / macOS experience? (self.apple_enthusiast)

Mine: require setting a URL to support password managers. You download an app, go to login, tap the password field, and open Bitwarden. Does it find your login? Half the time, nope! The dev didn’t tell Apple one time what their URL is, so everyone now has to search their password manager every time.

If I remember correctly they’ve since removed that rule

I hope they require a separate toggle for promotional notifications.

[–] fer0n 2 points 6 months ago

In an ideal world, Apple intelligence will take care of this. But it’ll probably just highlight more important notifications while everything else is still there a swipe away.

[–] catalyst 2 points 6 months ago

It’s still there, although there’s a loophole of course.

4.5.4:

Push Notifications should not be used for promotions or direct marketing purposes unless customers have explicitly opted in to receive them via consent language displayed in your app’s UI, and you provide a method in your app for a user to opt out from receiving such messages.

The “explicit opt-in” could easily be language hidden in a massive ToS that nobody reads. So I guess I wish Apple would do away with that entirely and start enforcing it.
