The technology company Apple has announced that it is introducing some fundamental changes in its approach and the way its apps operate.
According to the announcement made by the company, after these changes, iPhone users will be able to download apps from sources other than Apple for the first time.
This announcement from Apple signifies a significant change in iOS (the iPhone's operating software). The implication of this new change is that iPhone users can now download apps from rival companies' marketplaces, granting them access to apps that are not available on the Apple Store. To make payments for services, they will have to use the payment systems of those marketplaces because Apple will have no control over them.
In addition to introducing changes, iPhone users can also download streaming services such as Xbox Cloud Gaming, which was previously restricted.
It is important to note that after the changes, the application of most new rules will only be in European Union countries, while changes related to games will be global.
Apple's decision to implement these changes is in response to pressure from the Digital Markets Act in the European Union.
