Apple agrees to settle potential class action suit by U.S. developers
&gt; Developers can communicate directly with customers about alternative payment options. Customers have to consent and be given the right to opt-out.<p>This is a huge step forward (though it falls well short of the ideal case) for iOS development. Having the ability to tell customers about other, often cheaper, payment methods removes a substantial barrier for some apps that have high-priced subscriptions.<p>Positive as this change is, there is still a lot of ground to be won here. I&#x27;m fearful concessions like this will work as legal currency in the Epic case, instead of momentum pushing ongoing shifts in app store policy. Can someone with more legal understanding weigh in on that?
