iOS 17.4 Launches Alternative App Stores for EU Users
- iOS 17.4 introduces support for alternative app stores in the EU to comply with Digital Markets Act
- Alternative app store features only available to users with an EU Apple ID who are physically in the EU
- Users have a 30-day grace period to travel outside the EU before alternative store apps stop updating
- The 30-day period is sufficient for most travel and holidays, but frustrating for longer trips
- You must be physically in the EU to install new alternative store apps or marketplaces
