BTW the standalone app does not currently appear to be available in Australia.

The Apple control over the ecosystem is actually what makes it work well and work safely and is the foundational reason for why people buy Apple products whether they realise it or not.

To rip it apart will surely make it another G00gle product? To do so would surely cost $millions to rewrite the code that makes it work?

So if the EU leadership don’t like the Apple ecosystem as their representatives don’t seem to then they should use alternative products, they already have that choice and those other products are already available.
