Apple Inc recently pulled important app development tools from Google, because the internet giant broke its rules said by the iPhone maker. After more than 24 hours of disruption, Facebook had its access restored earlier on Thursday.

They are not able to use the app for their internal apps related to Food, Transport scheduling the people said, It is also lead to pre-release apps. To some companies apple offers an “enterprise certificate” that help companies without going through usual app review process on iPhone apps.
After Google Apple also restored “enterprise certificate” to Facebook, near about two days and after changing the “enterprise certificate” it makes consequently difficult for social media company to use its internal apps. These step allow Facebook developers to test beta version of any app developed by its developers Such as WhatsApp, Instagram on ios up and running.
Google and Facebook pass the enterprise certificate to test iphone version of app they make or the app they are making. If the popular Apps like Facebook, Instagram and whatsapp are not updated in the IPhone properly if the users find bugs In it and these apps are not familiar in use so ios users can switch them to Google Android operating System.
Data protection Apps are attached to different certificates so that’s why Google and Fcebook avoided these problems, Google pays apple billions of dollars each year so that Apple give Safari to be the default search engine to ios users on iPhone, Mac and Ipad.
Apple Offers an ‘enterprise certificate’ to companies work on iPhone apps without usual app review process. Facebook and Google use this to collect data according to user’s activity for internal research. By techcrunch, both companies stopped the activity at the time earlier this was reported.

Apple is strict on their rules and they are equal with Google and Facebook and many other companies who break their rules. The number is growing and the number of companies use Apple’s enterprise program to distribute apps to the users. iOS developer Alex Fajkowski has discovered that doordash, Amazon and Sonos distribute beta version (Test version) to their non employee.
