Chromecast with Google TV is now serving full-screen, auto-playing Chicken Tender Wrap ads
Chromecast with Google TV is now serving some users with full-screen, auto-playing video ads for physical goods on the home screen. Read on!
Reddit users thevincentasteroid and MMD3_ posted about an auto-playing video ad (with sound) on the home screen. The ad is for Chicken Tender Wraps from Carl’s Jr. When it begins auto-playing, it pushes all the other UI elements out of focus and goes almost full-screen, returning to the home screen after it has played through once.

So unusual for Apple but very welcomed move.
We’ve been able to sideload on iOS for quite some time.
There have been jailbreaks (equivalent to a root) for iOS devices for quite some time, newer devices take more time to break but it always gets there.
There is a lot of misunderstanding and tech bro tribalism around android and Apple that makes folks blind to what the other has and does
further driving this tribalism is how my iPhone auto capitalizes Apple and iPhone properly but happily ignores chrome and android and google
If I need to jailbreak/root my phone to sideload it's a workaround.
I mean sideload as a feature without hacking my device and with that (to some extend) compromise security.You can sideload apps without jailbreaking.
Since you started talking about iOS, do you actually mean the phone OS or ATV?
Because if phone OS: Since when were you able to sideload? Apple is still restricting it actively for all users and only now users in the EU will have the supposed option.
There have been tools to side-load apps for a while, it’s not an official process supported by Apple.
I haven’t had the need or want to sideload anything in a while so I’m not on top of it right now, but sideloadly appears to be the current tool for it.
I’m talking about both however.
Q: How long will I be able to use the sideloaded app? A: A normal & free Apple Developer account only allows the app to function for 7 days. After 7 days you can sideload it again using the same Apple ID, just make sure your progress is backed up. Apps signed with a paid Apple Developer Account can last up to 1 year.
I can hardly call that an intended feature and more a workaround very targeted to devs and not to customers.
The app may take care of it but...oh boy....
