At WWDC 2024, Apple introduced enhancements related to UIDocumentBrowserViewController in the session titled "Evolve your document launch experience." The session discusses a new document launch experience for apps using UIDocumentViewController as the root view controller. This new experience includes a built-in browser and allows for customization of the launch options to enhance the app's unique identity. For UIKit apps, it is recommended to set UIDocumentViewController as the root view controller and apply customizations to the launch options.
For more details, you can refer to the session Evolve your document launch experience (03:13).
