Last week the company Apple issued a number of announcements related to changes in App Store and iPhone in the European Union. The company Apple is making these changes because it has to comply with the Digital Markets Act, and a new interview with Phil Schiller makes it clear that Apple he is very worried about these changes.

In an interview with Fast Company Phil Schiller He acknowledged that changes such as alternative online app stores and alternative in-app purchase options mean new opportunities for developers. However, these opportunities also carry certain undeniable risks. “These new regulations bring new opportunities for developers, but also new risks. We cannot avoid this. That is why we are doing everything we can to mitigate these risks for everyone.” mini"they were malingering," stated Schiller in the aforementioned interview.
Alternative online stores, among other things, for example, have the potential to get content into iPhones that Apple in his App Stora previously did not allow it. Schiller said in an interview with Fast Company that it may simply be content that the company Apple evaluated as dangerous or inappropriate. "Whether other app stores have the same terms and restrictions will no longer depend on our decision," he pointed out.

Schiller further stated that the company Apple For more than 15 years, it has had to face incentives either for greater benevolence in terms of content in App Store, or conversely, to increase control of potentially objectionable content. Apple Over the years, he has created his own rules that he believes work. But these rules will not apply to other app stores, which increases the risk that “more vulnerable” users, in particular, may encounter inappropriate or risky content. Schiller says he is concerned about apps that will be available outside of App Store, as well as the fact that many users mindlessly agree to the rules of use of these alternative marketplaces.
I certainly don't plan on using anything outside of AppStore. And it is almost certain that with the relaxation of the rules, criminal groups will try to smuggle something somewhere. That is why I will remain loyal AppStoreWe will soon see how the EU will improve our quality of life.
Huge risk to their profits :D
They would prefer to cancel the installation option as well appike on macOS outside app store, but they did not convince the developers that their Mac App Store is it a good place to download appiek. And no wonder - app store for 30% and after consecration or 0% and without restrictions.
On the other hand, it is up to the user what he installs on his phone and if he wants to infect his device, that is his problem. Rather, society should devote itself to education, rather than always leading people by the hand and thinking for them.
Threat to profits Applu? Without a doubt. A fundamental reduction in security iOS? No discussion. And yes – I have a problem with the platform security being reduced – the lousy EU…
It sucks. Here we talk about Nokia
Maybe the EU should have set rules for them App Store.
1/ Prohibit to enforce apple pay
2/ rules app store EU settings
3/ disputes between apple and developers would be dealt with by the EU
But it would be a bigger intervention than allowing access to competition. And also more robots with it.
I am aware of the risk and I did not enable sideloading even on Android, which I have been using for almost a year. And on iOS I won't do it at any cost. I just hope that the alternative store will have to be explicitly allowed and that developers will have sense and not prefer alternative stories over the real one App Storem. And that there won't be many gamblers who would use those alternative stories. I understand that even iPhone It is bought by a person for whom every extra cent spent is a problem and if they pay for 2 years, they can no longer afford X amount of money for applications, but perhaps no one will trade it for security.
You probably hit it. Those who are able to give four fives and more for an iP have the most crap and then cry when they have to buy an application and pat the EU commissioners on the shoulders, how is it again Apple nandali 🤦♂️
And what android brand did you have?
If with some superstructure, then you had an alternative store with applications already in the foundation and your security was obviously not threatened in any way.
The biggest weakness of any system is the user.
Alternative trades and sideloading are different things.
Or does it seem to you? Amazon Appstore, Humble Bundle or Samsung Galaxy Store as a risk?
By the way, even within App Store there were and are applications that are a potential security risk because Apple unable to control everything due to various capacity constraints.
It's just that now developers will have more options for how to distribute applications, etc., and where they will have more reach and profits depends on the users.
So it would be nice to stop panicking.
What if I want to support developers from 100% and not stuff a third of a fucking apple?
try to contact the developer and pay him on the side, you can pay him even more than the app is worth.
Pavel: And by buying an iPhone, who did you support...?
@Ivan well, damn apple. Who else would he support? 😉
That doesn't mean I will Apple live off the money I want to give to the developer.
Interestingly. When you do Apple You have submitted a story so you have agreed to the terms. Next time, buy something else and you'll have a problem. 😉
What if I want to support the developer from 100% and not stuff a third of it into a fucking s**t?
that's right - spotify example: apple – 30%, spotify – 20% musicians – 50%
scion apple in this case, she is irreverent. Not to mention that they have a competitive service where the margin doesn't exist. That is, an unfair market environment.
As from Apple Music The musician doesn't have anything? Btw. so shouldn't the musician get it all? Why? Apple 30% and Spotify 20%? 🤷♂️
So Spotify is just a stupid case. The one over Apple You don't have to pay at all. You set up payments in the web interface and that's it. iPhone is then only one of the devices through which you use Spotify…
And in exactly the same way, any developer has the option to pay for their application as part of a subscription. I just suspect that there must not be a link in the application to the website where the subscription would be paid.
