If you're wondering why the situation was so bad before
today, here's a quick history lesson. Back in the day, if you
were an iOS developer and wanted to make a browser app,
you were pretty limited in your choices. Apple never allowed
third-party browser rendering engines on iOS (and possibly
never will), so developers had to wrap their browsers
around Safari's rendering engine. This meant integrating
with Apple's UIWebView API, which became outdated
around iOS 4.3 when the much-improved Nitro rendering
engine was released.
The problem is that Nitro initally wasn't available to thirdparty
developers at all. Even when Apple opened it up with
iOS 8's release (under the WKWebView API), it still had
some integration limitations that made it difficult for Google
to use it as Chrome's engine. Since then, Google has
worked with Apple to improve the situation, and the fruits of
that labor are now on offer to the world.
iOS users looking to try the new version can hit the iTunes
store to install or update Chrome.
