Apple Challenges €500 Million EU App Store Fine in Court

Apple has appealed a €500 million EU fine, criticizing the regulator's App Store rules as unlawful and claiming the decision oversteps legal boundaries. The EU fined Apple for steering users to outside purchases, prompting Apple to modify its policies in June, including a tiered commission structure and more flexible promotion of out-of-app payments. Apple argues these changes are confusing and beyond legal requirements, continuing its ongoing legal battles over App Store practices.

Apple revamps EU App Store policies to avoid fines

Apple has introduced new tiered App Store fee structures and features in the EU to comply with the Digital Markets Act and avoid further penalties, including a basic tier with limited features at 5% commission and a full-feature tier at 13%, along with a new Core Technology Commission fee on outside purchases. These changes follow a €500 million EU fine and are part of Apple's effort to address regulatory concerns, with plans to move to a single business model in the EU by 2026.
