The European Union has stepped up pressure on Apple to open up its iOS system, seeking to allow third-party accessories to pair more easily with iOS and enabling third-party apps to run in the background without restrictions. The EU has also called for restrictions on Apple's AirPlay and AirDrop features to be lifted, allowing them to be used on other devices.
The EU has set a deadline of January 9, 2025, for Apple to come to an agreement on the matter. Apple has responded to the EU's demands, criticizing the Digital Markets Act (DMA) and expressing concerns that the regulation will compromise user privacy and security. Apple has also highlighted that Meta is seeking access to its sensitive technology under the DMA, and that making its technology available to Meta would put user data at risk.
