I told you the other day how to install the F.lux application on iPhone or iPad to be able to change the screen colors of the company's terminals Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, but unfortunately Apple opposes this.
In an article published on his own blog, the developer of the application F.lux explained the fact that he was contacted by the Apple company who asked him to stop distributing his application on the Internet for installation on any terminals because this violates the terms and conditions of developers for iOS.
The Apple company allows itself to do this because although the application is not officially offered through the App Store, it still uses Xcode technology to be installed, and the Apple company can control everything that is done through its software, if it wants.
Starting with iOS 9 the Apple company offers the possibility to install any kind of applications in the iPhone or iPad, but this is the first time that it forbids a developer to distribute a certain application that it has not published in the App Store, and this will not be the last time.
f.lux cannot ship an App using the Documented APIs, because the changes we make are not allowed. In the last 5 years, we have had numerous conversations with Apple about our product and what would be required to make it work with iOS. We respect Apple's products enormously, and we urge Apple to allow work like ours to continue through Documented APIs.
Although the Apple company does not want the application F.lux to be distributed by those developers, in the article written by me the other day you have a download link that still works, so you can still use it to download and install the application.
To be honest, I don't really understand why Apple still allows the installation of any applications since it restricts this function when something doesn't suit it, but the Apple company has always had contradictory practices when things start to not suit them.
