After the court ruling on May 3, 2023, Apple updated its iOS App Store review guidelines, easing restrictions for developers in the US App Store. Previously, Apple lost the Epic Games antitrust case, and the court ruled that it had "intentionally" violated a 2021 injunction that prohibited Apple from charging a 27% fee on external payments and restricted redirecting actions. In this context, the new rules allow developers to offer external payment methods within their apps and support users in purchasing non-fungible tokens (NFTs) through third-party markets.

Despite the easing of restrictions, cryptocurrency applications still need to adhere to Apple's strict regulations, including prohibitions on rewarding tokens for completing tasks, conducting initial coin offerings (ICOs), and using user devices for mining, among other actions. Although this easing primarily targets the US region and does not apply to in-app premium content or in-game purchases, developers believe it provides more experimental space for crypto-native mobile applications and is expected to foster innovation and development in relevant fields within the Apple ecosystem.
