This is the reason why anti-trust agencies don’t like this. Apple (with its App Store) is a gatekeeper and in Europe at least it should not favor its own apps over the others(i.e maps, payments, AI integrations etc). It should play fair.


“Fair” meaning that an app that was designed from the ground up by the same people that created the device and operating system should get the same attention as a malware-ridden hack from six years ago?

What does fair even mean here? Ensuring the advantages of vertical integration can’t be enjoyed by users?


Fair means you follow your own rules and do not use your monopolistic position to promote your apps.
