For the past few years, iOS has barred users from downloading files larger than 150MB, posing an issue for those who want to download large apps on the go. Now, however, that limit is being increased — from 150MB to 200MB. Still, the fact that the limit can’t be bypassed is frustrating for some.
Just a few days before a number of software updates are expected to be announced at Apple’s Worldwide Developer Conference, Apple says it has made a small tweak to iOS that could make it easier to download larger apps. The cellular download limit is being raised from 150MB to 200MB, the company said.
The change may seem small, but it essentially means that you’ll be able to download more large apps and games on a cellular network.
The limit is there for a good reason, but some might see this as not enough.
