Jeff JohnsonHow is iPhone Mirroring covered by the DMA?
First of all, it’s a feature of macOS, which hasn’t been designated a gatekeeper by the EU.
Second, if iPhone Mirroring is somehow problematic, what about Universal Control, which already exists?
Dominic :emoji_wink:@lapcatsoftware probably because you can’t mirror an android phone.
Buck@lapcatsoftware It's just petty retaliatory BS from Apple
Michał Jurewicz@lapcatsoftware I assume that is about using private API. One point of DMA is that gatekeeper can’t use private API in their apps. No option to build 3rd party app which can mirror iPhone, provide remote access between iOS devices, check grammar probably, etc. violates DMA rules.
@malauch That seems unlikely, because iOS uses private API all over the place. They’d have to rewrite the entire OS.
@lapcatsoftware You are right but DMA still forbids using private api in “complementary and supporting services”. What is core system feature and what is complementary service is another topic.
Naturally It doesn’t change the fact that Apple could do this right from the beginning and just preferred to play stupid.
