Publishing timestamp: 2024-03-12 12:46:24
Summary
Apple will allow iPhone users in EU to download apps from websites instead of through the App Store, a change forced by the European Commission's Digital Markets Act. This is a major reversal for Apple, which has fought against web downloads of software for years. The new program will start later this spring and requires developers to meet specific criteria. Apple will still collect fees for app downloads outside of its App Store.
