I understand what this topic is about; the App Store is an unavoidable interface that I have to regularly interact with.

I would love it if Apple provided an alternate method to install and update apps on iOS that didn’t involve the App Store.

The relative intrusiveness of start menu ads is, for me, much lower than the App Store ads, as the start menu ads (and its connectivity to the web in general) can easily be toggled off.




I think most users of both would disagree with you.


I mean, that’s basically just a judgement call of how many users leave their start menu ads enabled. Obviously if you leave them enabled you’re going to find them more intrusive than App Store ads, and if you disable them you’re going to find them less intrusive than App Store ads.
