With the Digital Markets Act (DMA) coming into effect in the European Union (EU) this year, online store operators need to allow users to download apps from third-party stores and make payments outside the ecosystem. According to the WSJ report, Apple will continue to charge for sideload applications.

Apple doesn't usually specify the origins of the components in the iPhones. However, for the first time, CEO Tim Cook confirms that the company has partnered with Sony for many years "to create the world's leading camera sensors for iPhone."

Previously, Elon Musk was quite "emotional" about Apple's alleged plan to remove Twitter from the Apple App Store. But it seems that it has been cleared out. This was after Musk had met up with Tim Cook recently.

Twitter has delayed the relaunch of its Twitter Blue subscription to make various other changes to the service, as well as to avoid paying Apple’s 30 per cent App Store cut. Moreover, the revamped Blue subscription may not be available as an in-app purchase on the Twitter iOS app when it relaunches on the Apple App Store.

Apple CEO Tim Cook has revealed that the company is currently facing challenges to keep up with the demand for its iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. In fact, the new iPhone 14 Pro models are so popular that the company is constrained from the day they were launched, prompting Apple to chase supply by ramping up production.

Big Apple news alert! At 8 pm today, Apple CEO Tim Cook posted a teaser on Twitter confirming the imminent arrival of new iPads. With the caption "The possibilities are endless" and the hashtag "TakeNote", Cook also shared a video showing fingers zooming in continuously on a painting displayed on a tablet-like device. In the end, Apple Pencil made an appearance too.

The smartphone world is pretty much dominated by two operating systems, Apple’s ‘wall-gardened’ iOS on the iPhone and the other being Google’s open source Android on a slew of devices. While Android has always had more users thanks to its open source nature, it seems that iOS is catching up with 2022 seeing a record number of Android users switching to iPhone.

Will Tim Cook step down as the CEO of Apple? That's not easy to answer unless if Cook gives an official statement. However, he could be planning to stay around for a long time until there is "one more major new product category" by Apple.

During the VivaTech 2021 conference held in Paris, Apple CEO Tim Cook stated that Android has more malware than iOS as the former allows "sideloading" apps. The statement is also one of the reasons that the Cupertino-based company oppose the proposed European Law, Digital Markets Act (DMA).

“It just works,” said Apple’s founder Steve Jobs back then, now the quote was repeated by current CEO Tim Cook during the antitrust lawsuit hearing to the House Judiciary Committee. Besides that, he also said that Google (Android) is the most dominant operating system around the world when asked about Apple’s monopoly in the smartphone industry.
