Apple today filed a request with the Supreme Court in an attempt to reverse key lower court rulings over the App Store injunction in its long-running legal battle with Epic Games. Here are the details.
A bit of background
If you’ve been following the Epic Games versus Apple saga, you know the dispute began in 2020, when Epic used a server-side update to bypass Apple’s In-App Purchase (IAP) system inside Fortnite after the app had already passed App Review.
Apple immediately removed the game from the App Store. Epic immediately sued.
Throughout the many twists and turns of the case, the courts rejected Epic’s broader antitrust claims and largely upheld Apple’s App Store model.
