Apple may allow the loading of third -party applications to the EU
Apple will allow users from the European Union to download applications on the iPhone and iPad not only from the App Store, but also from third -party stores. It is reported by Bloomberg with reference to sources.
The agency’s interlocutors note that Apple will prepare the necessary changes in 2023. They can be available in the IOS 17 version.
The innovation is provided for by the EU Law "On Digital Markets" . According to the document, since 2024, a corporation with a market value of at least 75 billion euros, among other things, should simplify the installation of third -party applications for users.
Apple has not yet been commented on the information.
In addition, an agreement has been reached in the same time to transfer all mobile devices to chargers with a USB-C port. Since the spring of 2026, this rule will apply to laptops.
