    iOS apps built using Trigger.io Forge roughly consist of the UIWebView component provided by the iOS SDK, which loads your HTML/CSS/JavaScript, whether it’s bundled with the app or fetched using Trigger.io Reload.

    The iOS Developer Program License Agreement actually covers the topic of updating UIWebView assets without the use of the App Store distribution mechanism:

    3.3.2 An Application may not download or install executable code. Interpreted code may only be used in an Application if all scripts,
    code and interpreters are packaged in the Application and not
    downloaded. The only exception to the foregoing is scripts and code
    downloaded and run by Apple’s built-in WebKit framework, provided
    that such scripts and code do not change the primary purpose of the
    Application by providing features or functionality that are
    inconsistent with the intended and advertised purpose of the
    Application as submitted to the App Store.

    From https://developer.apple.com/programs/terms/ios/standard/ios_program_standard_agreement_20120912.pdf (you need to be signed in to the Apple Developer Centre to see it though).
