It was back on October 27th when we reported about a DOS emulator for the iPhone and iPad that had surfaced for a brief time period and was pulled from the App Store, the name was iDos, and now it has once again surfaced on the App Store and has not been pulled out till we published this post.

iDos is based upon a software called DOSBox, and was reportedly pulled out because it allowed users to install and run executables within the emulator. Interestingly, with DOS being a property of Microsoft, which indeed is a rival of Apple, it was confusing to comprehend how Apple had approved the last version of iDos in the first place.

However now, iTunes file-sharing has been turned off in iDos as well as the ability to run .exe files, meaning that iDos has now been tailored for some classic nostalgic gaming only, so it looks like there are less chances of this app being pulled out again.

iDos requires iOS 4.0 higher and can be installed on the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.

Download iDos for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
