American Federal Judge Apple ordered the cancellation of policies that limit the ability of application developers to direct users to external payment options.
Judge IPhone Gonzalez Rogers on April 30, represents a pivotal moment for encryption developers based on iOS.
Will Apple reduce the “Off-APT-App” restrictions on encryption payments?
According to the court filingsThe referee stems from the long legal battle with epic games. The Apple App Store Practice has challenged as an anti -competition.
In 2021, the court issued a judicial order asking Apple to allow developers to provide alternative methods of applying users.
However, Apple responded by adding restrictions such as warning screens and complex steering. These measures have sparked users of users to leave the purchase system within the application, as the company takes a 30 % commission on transactions.
The court found that these changes are unacceptable and issued that Apple could not add new barriers or fees for payments outside the application.
The judge wrote: “Apple, despite the knowledge of its obligations according to it, thwarted the goals of the irritable matter, and continued its anti -competition behavior only to maintain the flow of its revenues.”
Under the new guidance, Apple cannot impose fees or set additional obstacles for transactions outside the application.
The company has since updated its application store instructions to allow developers to include external payment links, provided that certain conditions are met.
“Applications may allow users to browse the NFT groups owned by others, provided that they do not include applications, except for applications mentioned in the store interface in the United States, buttons, external links or other calls to procedures for guiding customers to purchase mechanisms other than purchase during application,” Read.
This change opens new possibilities for encryption applications that were previously struggling under the Apple narrow ecosystems.
Crypto community members indicated that applications can now support direct payments using digital assets such as USDC, ETH and Sol. This allows them to bypass the Apple system and avoid a 30 % commission.
Also, iOS applications can finally enable NFT purchases in the app. This removes the friction of the re -orientation of users to external web browsers and can significantly improve the experience of the mobile phone user.
Moreover, the decision makes it easy for developers the features of the Gate application using NFTS. Apple has already restricted this practice to prevent avoiding drawings.
However, the developers indicated, Fiat-To-Crypto Onboarding is still a challenge. Although the new policy makes the use of encryption it is easier to obtain assets, users still need to complete KYC actions to buy symbols.
