Apple must continue to allow apps to link out and avoid its App Store commission during its appeal against an injunction resulting from the Epic anti-steering ruling.
Apple must continue allowing developers to bypass commissions
Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers ruled that Apple willfully violated an injunction against its anti-steering practices in the Epic vs Apple case. Even though Apple was compelled to remove its anti-steering rules, the new rules were too aggressive for developers to bother supporting.
According to a report from Reuters, Apple’s request to pause enforcement of the judge’s ruling during appeals failed. The U.S. appeals court denied Apple’s request, where it shared that “we strongly disagree.”
