The EU regulation authority is targeting Apple’s iPadOS under new tech rules that will allow the company to open a platform like iOS.
Apple’s iOS platform was under scrutiny by the EU regulations last year and it made Apple open the software for third-party developers. However, this was only the beginning as the company’s iPadOS is now under pressure from the new EU tech regulations.iPadOS has now been identified as a Digital Gatekeeper under the EU’s new tech rules, pushing Apple to fulfill the obligations in the next six months
The latest news coming out of the EU states that the antitrust officials in the region have identified Apple’s iPadOS as a major digital gatekeeper. iPadOS is Apple’s operating system for the iPad and the company has already implemented various changes in the platform related to the App Store and Safari. However, iPadOS is now gaining further traction from the EU’s new tech rules, which could allow it to be opened with more options.
As mentioned, the EU Commission demanded Apple to open iOS and implement changes to the platform to promote fair market competition.
