The DMA will have a big impact on Apple’s platforms, and it could result in Apple making major changes to the App Store, Messages, FaceTime, Siri, and more.

Apple has a verification system on Mac that allows users to be safe while giving them access to apps outside of the Mac App Store.
If other countries introduce similar legislation, alternate app stores could expand beyond the European Union.
