How to have applications on iPhone will not be the same. So far we know that with new Widgets for iOS 14 or new password management it will come, but the latest code discovery of the following system has thrown the potential function of the program into question run third-party applications without installing them on the phone.
New API in iOS 14
According to the 9to5mac analysis it is possible that there is a new way to be able to have the features of other applications without needing to be installed. It's all because it's located in the iOS 14 code new API
Content that developers can provide you with this API can be it is more interactive, can allow the user to get closer to their work. We can compare this function with "Slices" for Android, which shows search results in Google search.
How does it work?
When scanning a QR code provided by an uninstalled application and found somewhere else it would open floating window, allowing the user to preview and access some of its functions.
For example, when browsing the internet it is common to see YouTube video advertising, when you link the app you open and play first. But with this new function, a QR for the same video can exist, which when scanned will be allowed to be viewed in a floating window, which allows the user to access other activities how to pause, play, mute or transfer video instantly. Everything is very similar to the actual application unless it is included
Another assumption is that these floating captions with light versions of the applications may result in the full AppStore installation. Which can go a long way in recovering after a bad review or refund people who are satisfied with the content of the app, showing them general usage and profitability before buying.
