The European Union has issued preliminary instructions to Apple regarding compliance with the Digital Markets Act's interoperability provisions. The Act aims for improved functionality for non-Apple devices connected to iPhones by allowing access to iOS features, including NFC and peer-to-peer connectivity. This initiative follows the designation of Apple as a 'gatekeeper,' meaning strict rules apply, including up to 10% fines for non-compliance. The EU also stresses the importance of timely communication from Apple for third-party developers concerning interoperability requests and access to technical documentation.
The European Union's Digital Markets Act mandates Apple to share more iOS connectivity features with third-party developers and device manufacturers, ensuring better interoperability.
The Commission's interaction emphasizes Apple's new responsibilities to improve communication and access for third-party developers seeking interoperability with iOS and iPadOS.
