Apple's infamously restrictive App Store rules have just gotten a little more restrictive, it's clear from the giant's developer blog – and crypto, Apple, and Big Tech observers have noticed it.
Going forward, the updated App Store review guideline bans apps from using NFTs (non-fungible tokens) to skirt around Apple’s highly lucrative in-app purchase mechanism. This means that NTF sales have to go through in-app purchase, with Apple taking its 30% cut.
Another feature, that will be included in the iOS 16.1 and iPadOS 16.1 releases, is that “advertising boosts” also have to also use in-app purchase.
