Apple reportedly has plans to allow third-party app stores on iOS and the iPhone according to Mark Gurman of Bloomberg. The plans would be a massive shift as Apple since the conception of the iPhone has never allowed any third-party app store on its devices. This would mean that Apple would not only have to allow third-party app stores but also sideloading or the act of installing software from the internet as well.

It works system-wide with no extra steps, including in most third-party apps.
