Epic tried to convince Gonzalez Rogers that Apple’s App Store was in itself a “market,” over which Apple is a monopolist, and wanted the judge to force Apple to allow alternative app stores and payment processing systems on its phones.
My understanding is that Apple must allow app devs to tell customers about alternatives (and even provide a link to those alternatives), but Apple is still allowed to dictate what the in-app payment options are.
