Faced with the perspective of more fines in the European Union related to the App Store, Apple made significant and complex changes in its terms of service in Europe.
Changes mean that technology giant will probably have less revenue with its EU app for iPhone and iPad, which represents about 7% of the digital store’s revenue.
The measure is a response to a fine of 500 million euros that Apple has received because it is not in accordance with the EU digital market law, which regulates large companies that operate digital markets. The company had until Friday to make these changes.

“The European Commission is demanding a series of additional changes in the app store,” Apple told Barron’s in a statement. “We do not agree with this result and plan to appeal.”
The goal also had a Friday deadline to comply with compliance and is also facing possible daily fines. The social media company was fined € 200 million by the EU in April for violations related to privacy and advertising issues in its applications.
