According to the Gate.io News bot, Decrypt reports that after losing the antitrust case against Epic Games, Apple updated its iOS App Store review guidelines. The new policy targets applications in the U.S. region, allowing developers to direct users to use third-party payment methods and lifting the restrictions on users browsing NFTs held by others.
The court previously ruled that Apple "willfully" violated the 2021 injunction, requiring it to stop charging a 27% fee on external app payments and to lift restrictions on payment redirection. The new regulations do not pertain to in-app features, such as premium content or in-game purchases.
Apple has clearly stated in the new policy that it still prohibits applications from issuing tokens through task completion, conducting ICOs, or using devices for cryptocurrency mining activities.
