I’ve been writing about technology for two decades and am routinely struck by how the sector swings from startling innovation to persistent repetitiveness. My areas of specialty are wearable tech, cameras, home entertainment and mobile technology.
Apple’s latest iPhone software, iOS 17.4 is just out and comes with plenty of feature updates. But in a development to be filed under unintended consequences, a surprise detail emerged for EU users wanting to use their iPhones overseas—March 9 update below. This post was first published on March 7, 2024.
That’s clear, but we live in a connected world, so what happens to those EU users when they travel? Apple had said that apps from those other marketplaces would continue to work overseas, but was light on details, saying only “If you leave the European Union for short-term travel, you'll continue to have access to alternative app marketplaces for a grace period. If you're gone for too long, you'll lose access to some features.
So, apps already downloaded from these marketplaces will continue to work wherever you are but after 30 days outside the EU, they won’t get updates.
