I’ll have it not show Xcode. It’s apples main developer ide. Most of the time it works. Then it gets into some weird loop. Only shows the Xcode website. Very helpful.
What?? In Europe there are lots of viable alternatives. Same as Asia!!
I do. No one cares.
Apple messed up since the memory is integrated?

That’s not why. It’s because it is less accurate. Go check the sub instead of making up reasons.

Is it? You can't easily tell with iOS apps because the container might be that big, but the app on your phone is a fraction of that. The container might contain multiple versions.
