Setapp announces plans to launch an alt app store for EU users
Setapp preparing to launch as an alternative app store in Europe.
Key points:
- Setapp is betting on the EU's Digital Markets Act's rules to allow third-party apps on iOS without going through Apple's App Store.
- Apple's interpretation of the new law is still unclear, but Setapp is moving forward with the assumption that Apple devices will have to support third-party app stores.
- Setapp aims to entice developers with better revenue shares and already has over 30 partners on board.
