Access to download and update apps Apple’s AppStore has been blocked, and this found many Ugandans stuck with no way to download any VPNs. The government through the Uganda Communications Commission (UCC) has requested all major telecom companies to block access to the iOS AppStore, Google PlayStore, and YouTube. This comes at a time when the country prepares to go into elections on the 14th of January.
Android users have the apk system that allows them to download and sideload applications on their phones. Apple users don’t have this option, so let’s give iOS users some solutions.
