The final version of the European Union Digital Markets Act (DMA) has been made available to MacRumors. It tells about the changes, which, in particular, will force Apple to reconsider the policy of work in the EU countries.
For example, Cupertino residents will be required to allow third-party app stores in addition to the App Store. Developers are allowed to use their own payment systems.
The document expands the provisions so that companies do not require developers to use a specific browser engine. This change is most likely aimed at directly removing Apple’s requirement that all browsers running on iOS and iPadOS use native WebKit technology.
They should allow third-party browsers like Chrome, Edge, Brave, and Opera to stop using WebKit and switch to Chromium, just like their desktop counterparts.
The bill also requires companies to use end-to-end encryption in applications for sending messages.
Finally, the DMA specifies the regulation of voice assistants. Users should be given the option to change the default virtual assistant to a third-party option on first use. [MacRumors]
