  • There is an Apple Vision Pro YouTube viewer app, but it isn't from Google

  • Meta joins list of companies that disapprove of Apple's DMA response

    rax_markrax_mark
    If companies such as Netflix, Spotify, Meta want to protest against Apple, they should pull out their apps from the App store instead of whining.

    They know that they cannot take that risk so they are complaining and basically coming off as crybabies.

    Although, if their aim is to cause reputation loss to Apple, it's working.

  • Apple won't license Masimo's patents despite Apple Watch import ban

    Masimo's CEO has said the company is willing to settle with Apple, but no conversation had started at that point. Now, it is clear Apple has no intention to open negotiations
    After looking at the patents the ITC say Apple infringed, I think Masimo did some submarine patents after the Apple Watch Series 6 was released. If I was Apple CEO, I would never settle with Masimo, and I would try to submarine Masimo with patents in return.

    Considering Tim Cook would 'Smart Hire' (poach) people rather than partnering with Masimo, it's highly expected that he would be the last one to suggest a negotiation or even a meeting.

  • If you're in the EU, you can ask Apple about App Store changes

    Don't think it's going to sway any of the big guys.

    Apple once made a presentation for Netflix on why they should not remove in-app purchases from the app, didn't do nothing. The overall benefits were very low for Netflix and the math was ultimately to the benefit of Apple.

    Wow, the states really likes iPhones. 

    If I were Google, I would realise that the US market is already lost and focus on other demographics. However, since the world is moving to premium and Android has a budget and cheap tag to it, I don't think that those markets will remain Android majority for a long time.

    Regardless, I think many Android OEMs will likely pull out of the states if things continue for them like this. 

    The US is already the least competitive market for phones in the world, the situation will only get worse.
    I see plenty of android phones where i work and when i go out places and i live in the US. 

    That number is going to decrease, if current market trends continues.
