Apple’s Court-Ordered Changes to App Store Solidify Revenue Share

Apple's recent changes to its app store policies, allowing developers to direct users to external sites for in-app purchases, still sees the company taking a 27% cut of the sale, despite hopes for reduced fees. Epic Games plans to challenge the new policy in federal court, claiming it is a "bad faith" effort to maintain Apple's market hold. The ongoing tensions between the two companies highlight differing views on fair competition and app store policies, while Apple retains its stake in the lucrative in-app purchase market.
