Answer from AI
When using extensions in iOS, the following limitations exist:
- Limited resources: extensions operate in a restricted environment with limitations on memory and execution time.
- Limited access to APIs: not all APIs are available in extensions; for example, access to certain system functions or background tasks may be prohibited.
- Data isolation: extensions do not have direct access to the main application's data; shared containers (App Groups) must be used for data exchange.
- UI restrictions: extensions have a limited user interface and cannot launch full applications.
These limitations must be considered when designing extensions to ensure correct and efficient operation.
