Apple, Google Agree to UK-Ordered App Store Changes for Fairer Developer Terms

• Apple and Google commit to UK-ordered changes for fairer, more transparent app stores.
• Changes aim to improve app review, ranking, and developer data handling after long-standing complaints.
• Developers can request deeper access to iOS features like digital wallets and live translation.
• The changes do not address the 30% commission fees, a major developer frustration.
• UK regulator CMA negotiated commitments, calling it an "important first step" under new digital markets regime.
