<div class="feat-image">(https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/03/app-store-eu.webp?w=1600)</div><p>Last week, <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2024/03/06/ios-17-4-new-features-release-date/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Apple released iOS 17.4[/url] with big changes to the iPhone and App Store ecosystem (https://9to5mac.com/2024/01/25/third-party-iphone-app-stores-ios-17-4/) to comply with the Digital Markets Act in the European Union. This includes things like support for alternative app marketplaces, new business terms and in-app purchase options, and more.</p>



<p>Now, Apple has <a href="https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=8c1m8hqt" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">announced[/url] a few additional changes in response to feedback it’s received from developers so far. Most notably, Apple will launch a new Web Distribution feature later this spring that lets developers offer their apps for download directly from their website.</p>
