Description

The telegram in-app browser does not currently support the "itms-services://?action=download-manifest&url=" URL format, which is commonly used for installing applications on iOS devices. In contrast, Safari and other browsers fully support this format. Forcing users to use the in-app browser negatively impacts the iOS distributing experience. We hope that this issue will be addressed in a future update.

Expected Behavior

The itms-services URL, which ends with a .plist file, prompts an installation dialog for the user in default browsers.

Actual Behavior

On the other hand, the Telegram in-app browser does trigger the itms-services URL, but it results in a blank screen. without appearing any installation dialog.

Environment

Device: iPhone 15 pro Max

iOS version: 18

App version: 10.15.1

Change the browser in the Telegram settings. This error has nothing to do with the telegram, especially it is not a bug. If you need manifest to distribute pirated applications, use a regular safari

In contrast, Safari and other browsers fully support this format. Forcing users to use the in-app browser negatively impacts the iOS development experience

This does not interfere with the development of applications

If Telegram is being used on Apple Ecosystem, it must support functionalities that are standard for it, including a proper distribution of manifests.
