How to make an iOS application able to update itself without the AppStore?

Question

iOS

Hello!
Perhaps someone knows how to update an ios application without the participation of the AppStore?
I will be happy to discuss.

Answer 1

Apple does not allow changing the functionality of the application without review (review).
Everything else can be moved to the server side (colors, text, pictures)
I once made an application where one of the screens consisted of a table, I had the cells as part of the screen (some kind of module) and the position and configuration of these cells was set from the server . True, I must say that the application was in-hous and did not go through the AppStore, but the wave is a working version.
The second option is to look towards PWA, React-native and something like that. JSers love hot reload and most likely there is already something for this.
More recently, an article was published on how Instagram made a hot reload for a native application, I think you will be interested.

Answer 2

No way! If your update affects binaries that need to be recompiled.
