(Reuters) – Apple Inc <AAPL.O> on Friday published a revision of some of its App Store review guidelines https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines, loosening some restrictions on streaming game services, online classes and on when developers must use its in-app purchase system that charges a 30% commission.
The company made the changes after criticism from developers over its App Store practices and after some of its rivals such as Microsoft Corp <MSFT.O> and Alphabet Inc’s <GOOGL.O> Google declined to launch their streaming game platforms on iPhones because of Apple’s rules.
