Apple Launches iMessage App Store With iOS 10

The service uses a technique called app side-loading to allow users to install apps from outside the official iOS App Store.

Apple Music and Apple News have also been completely redesigned – and in Apple Music’s case it’s a big improvement – and there is a new Home app to make controlling all of your HomeKit devices easier. They will allow you perform a range of functions both fun and practical. I mean, come on, who doesn’t love a good game of pool right in the Messages app?

iOS 10 is just a few hours away from release given everything goes according to plan.

In order to use the new features in iMessage, a user needs to leave the programme to search in the big app store, which has more than 2 million apps.

We’ll have much more about iMessage apps and stickers in the coming days. If your keyboard is collapsed, the apps button will already be visible – it’s the same A logo found on the App Store icon. You’ll notice that the app logos might look a bit squashed, don’t panic.

Speculation as to why Apple has removed the app centers around a weird ruling from the company that it will only allow apps that support certain cryptocurrencies; news of this “approved list” first emerged in May when an Ether developer was allegedly told that Ether was not an “approved” virtual currency under Apple’s guidelines and that seemingly the only approved cryptocurrencies were bitcoin, Litecoin and (bizarrely), Dogecoin. Within minutes you’ll have a better, more secure phone. You can also “peel and place” them into chat bubbles and onto images, or even double them up with other stickers. Listening to an incredible song and want to share it? Just putting it out there so that users don’t commit a mistake downloading something which they otherwise thought was absolutely free.

Here, you will find all the compatible standalone applications for Messages, such as sticker packs, GIFs, video and audio apps and more.
