As reported by MacRumors, significant changes are on the horizon in Europe following Apple’s release of the iOS 26.3 update.
The forthcoming features are in accordance with the stipulations of the Digital Markets Act (DMA) that Apple is obligated to adhere to in the area. Apple must guarantee that third-party accessories receive equal treatment to its own products, whether concerning fast-pairing or displaying notifications. The European Commission (EC) commended the new interoperability updates that Apple plans to implement with the forthcoming iPhone software release, which is presently in beta testing. “The DMA opens up new avenues for developers to introduce innovative products and services in Europe,” a spokesperson for the EC informed The Wall Street Journal. “This represents another advancement toward a more interconnected digital ecosystem that benefits all EU citizens.”
