By porting Blink to iOS now, before such a change occurs, Google can properly show the benefits of Blink/Chrome versus WebKit/Safari on iOS while also making a potential switch to a full-fledged Chrome browser easier down the line. That said, there has been a recent groundswell of support for Apple to loosen its restrictions on the App Store and on browsers. Under Apple’s current App Store policies, all web browsers for iPhones and iPads are required to use the built-in version of WebKit, essentially making all browsers act like Safari.Īs those rules are still in effect, Google has made it clear that there are no plans to actually launch any type of Blink-based browser onto the App Store. Last month, Google quietly unveiled a new effort to port the Blink browser engine - used by Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers like Edge and Opera - to iOS. Google has begun the process of bringing Chrome’s full Blink browser engine to iOS against current App Store rules, and now we have our first look at the test browser in action.
