The European Union has issued preliminary instructions to Apple under the Digital Markets Act, compelling the company to promote interoperability by allowing third-party access to specific iOS and iPadOS features. Apple, identified as a 'gatekeeper' under the Act, disagrees with these measures and has expressed concerns about potential consequences. The EU's investigation revealed a lack of competition due to exclusive features, prompting enforcement actions. Failure to comply may lead to fines of up to 10% of Apple's global turnover, emphasizing the EU's commitment to fostering a competitive digital landscape.
The European Union's enforcement of the Digital Markets Act requires Apple to open up exclusive iOS and iPadOS features to third-party developers for a fair competitive environment.
Apple is cautioned that non-compliance with the new interoperability measures could result in hefty fines—up to 10% of global revenue—as the EU solidifies its stance on gatekeeping practices.
