Apple has removed all apps from the App Store in the EU that failed to comply with the Digital Services Act (DSA) by the February 17, 2025, deadline. We haven't complied with the DSA yet. Our apps are no longer available in the EU. We apologize to our customers.

The DSA rules require Apple to verify and display trader contact information for all traders distributing apps on the App Store in the EU. ..(1/2)

However, developers of many shady apps have found a way to stay on the App Store without having to disclose their contact information, even though they clearly should be classified as traders; as their apps generate revenue in the EU.

I don't want any app by a company not complying with the DSA.

Bugger off into oblivion.
