So, this could be a dumb question, but will IPAs have this region-locking?

Like, can I use something like AltStore to use the EU version of Firefox?

Pretty sure it's the OS that would be different, and likely hardware-locked or some other kind of region verification.

If you have the ipa you can sideload it via AltStore or similar unless Mozilla does something stupid
