Under the DMA, gatekeepers like Apple will be required to:
- Allow users to sideload apps directly from the internet and from third-party stores.
- Make services such as voice and video calling and messaging interoperable with third-party services.
- Allow app developers to offer third-party payments systems.
- Make sure all apps can be uninstalled.
- Allow users the option to change the default voice assistant.
- Give developers access to hardware features like near-field communication technology, secure elements and processors, authentication mechanisms, and the software used to control those technologies.
- Share data and metrics such as ads and marketing performance data with developers and competitors.
Big step here, keep going guys! Let’s make this law.
