08 October 2021
Apple says it needs more time to comply with California's anti-steering laws. A December deadline is not enough time.

Let the consumer decide the direction they want to use to make payment in every app that makes different options available. Not been forced to only use Apple.

      Every app developer could and should sue apple for this.
      The price difference on every product purchased is realy big.
      I really wonder why government lets apple do litterary whathewer they want.
      If it was on my shoulders i would ban them so much they would be really hapyp if they could stay on the market and make phones with at least 10% profit.
      Order and Balance should rule the world and not greed , hunger and sin for money. Being uber rich should be banned.
      Litterary no human, company, organization or government could and should act as a god.

            call me selfish, but 30% fee upon transaction but what developers get is only hosting and basic features and tools, it's not reasonable. when it comes to games, Steam, for example, 30% but includes you a community hub, updates and release area, etc. that allows you to interact with players better.

              How about stoping that flood of microtransactions? And you know, just ban that? Everyone know that its stupid, everyone know that its harmful as kids often buy skins for more than 50 dollars with their parents card. Everyone know that microtransactions butchered game industry... And still we have it...

                Thinking about what Epic did. Their action of facing Apple could have a huge impact on Developers around the world.

                  Reportedly, the appeal is a legal trick. Often used to delays change to the app store for years.

                    Apple wants their cut badly, lol. Arguing that being directed to the developers' website would be bad for consumers is kinda lame. It's really just bad for Apple because they don't know how much the developer is receiving from customers.
