The app was rejected three times by App Review due to violations of Apple’s In-App Purchase rules, before finally being approved on Tuesday. The eventually-approved app experience entails a nine step process, far more complicated than Spotify ideally wanted to offer, to comply with App Store rules.</p> <p>Spotify says this is yet another case of Apple’s anticompetitive dominance on the app economy. Spotify first filed a formal complaint (https://9to5mac.com/2019/03/13/spotify-files-complaint-with-european-commission/) to the European Commission back in 2019 The commission is still investigating.</p> <p> <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2022/10/25/spotify-audiobooks-app-update-rejected-by-apple-three-times-over-in-app-purchase-rules/#more-844415" class="more-link">more…[/url]</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://9to5mac.com/2022/10/25/spotify-audiobooks-app-update-rejected-by-apple-three-times-over-in-app-purchase-rules/">Spotify audiobooks app update rejected by Apple three times over in-app purchase rules[/url] appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://9to5mac.com">9to5Mac[/url].</p> Source: Spotify audiobooks app update rejected by Apple three times over in-app purchase rules (https://9to5mac.com/2022/10/25/spotify-audiobooks-app-update-rejected-by-apple-three-times-over-in-app-purchase-rules/) |
