Apple’s rules about what developers can do within browsers is limiting innovation, the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority has determined, as part of its provisional findings from its browser investigation.

In 2021, the CMA launched its Mobile Ecosystems Market Study, determining that Apple and Google had a duopoly in the realm of mobile ecosystems. While it was found that Apple and Google were in a position to determine how browsers work on iOS and Android, the CMA now says that Apple does restrict competition because of its rules.
The provisional findings, released on Friday, say that Apple’d rules “restrict other competitors from being able to deliver new, innovative features that could benefit consumers.” It also refers to the concerns of other browser producers who are “unable to offer a full range of browser features, such as faster webpage loading on iPhone.”
