Either Apple is making decisions on the fly, or it has bigger projects going on and giving us extra time. Three days ago, we saw how the company was blocking the installation of any iOS app on Mac with an M1 chip, and now these installations are possible again.
Therefore, anyone who has a Mac with an M1 chip can reinstall apps like Instagram or Netflix in macOS Big Sur by extracting the app’s .IPA file through tools like iMazing.
A type of installation that won’t last long
This is not the official intention of Apple: the company does not want us to be able to install everything we want from the App Store on our Macs, otherwise only what is sufficiently prepared for it. It is the developers who decide whether to work on it or not.
The media that discovered it and we ourselves believe that it’s not something that will last forever, so if you want to have iPhone apps on your Mac, now is the time to do it and not be entertained. In the very near future, the function may be blocked again.
