I'm unconvinced by the argument that "iPhone apps" and "Android apps" are the relevant categories, rather than just "smartphone apps". It seems like it leads to a slippery slope where every company that's not selling in a completely-generic category holds a monopoly over its own products. Ford holding a monopoly over F-150 pickup trucks, etc.

The argument Apple has a monopoly on "iPhone apps" was already considered in Epic v. Apple and the judge rejected it.

  That should set a precedent for Apple in the US, but it has no bearing on Europe's verdict.
