The $1.95 billion fine on March 4, 2024, was specifically regarding this anti-steering issue. Apple at the time objected, saying that the EU had failed “to uncover any credible evidence of consumer harm.”
According to Bloomberg, Apple has subsequently accepted the EU’s decision. In a change made on Friday to the App Store rules, Apple said it will no longer block developers in the EU from linking out to alternative methods of payment.
