Apple on Friday began its attempt to appeal a ruling by US District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers in its legal battle with Fortnite maker Epic Games. The two companies have been feuding since last year about how the iPhone and iPad App Store runs, leading to a court case in which Rogers ruled largely in Apple’s favor. She did issue one ruling though that declared Apple must allow app developers to add buttons, links and other information about alternative payment options within their apps, potentially circumventing Apple’s in-app payment systems and the up to 30% fees the tech giant charges. Apple on Friday said in its filing that the ruling could harm both itself and its customers, and asked that Apple be allowed to continue business as usual during the appeal.
