The app store hides apps that aren't available in your region -- even now.

  Last time I checked (~7 years ago) they didn't even share reviews between regions. It was infuriating in Iceland where for obvious reasons all but the most popular apps had less than 5 reviews.

  EU users should still be able to install the international versions of the apps, no? This they would see APP and APP (EU Edition).

    I assume if you built an EU version of an app with, for example, your own browser engine then you wouldn't make the other "International" version available. What would be the point?
    • bhelkey 3y ago
      If you already have an international version, why would you prevent EU users from installing it? If you don't have an international audience, it wouldn't make sense to build two visions. But I imagine many apps want to target users outside the EU.

        I don't know. What does "Be available on iOS in the European Union only" even mean?

        Because you did work to localize it, do GDPR Compliance and stuff?
