iDOS 3 in the App Store
But in July, Apple reversed course and approved UTM SE, and earlier this month, it added the words “PC emulator” to guideline 4.7, which is seemingly why iDOS 3 has now been allowed on the App Store.
As for iDOS 3, the app is available for iPhone and iPad on the App Store and costs just $0.99. It requires a device running iOS 12 or later.
Chaoji Li (via Craig Grannell):
It has been a long wait for common sense to prevail within Apple. As much as I want to celebrate, I still can’t help being a little bit cautious about the future. Are we good from now on?
This is great fun–and I’m a bit sad that it took me all of 10 minutes to get Windows 95 running very snappily (if a little buggy) on it, and yet I still cannot “legally” run legacy Mac OS versions on an iPad.

Again, Apple is still, ironically, the main reason why we cannot have nice things on the nicest hardware on the planet.
