Apple has disputed EU rules that label its five App Stores as one service subject to onerous obligations. The company insists there are actually five separate App Stores, not one, challenging the European Commission's interpretation. In November 2023, Apple objected to the EU's Digital Markets Act, emphasizing the distinction between the five App Stores and a single service. The European Union's Margrethe Vestager has met with Apple's Tim Cook to discuss the company's operations in the EU, particularly focusing on the App Store and Apple Music. Additionally, the EU antitrust chief has urged Apple to allow third-party app stores and discussed the possibility of sideloading iPhone apps with Tim Cook.
