If the Google Play store is a monopoly, then what the fuck is the apple store? At least on android you're not forced to only use the play store if you choose, unless you do some sketchy shit to your iPhone, you're stuck with their store only.

Epic in 2021 mostly lost a nearly identical case against Apple over its own app store monopoly for iOS devices, and it is waiting to find out whether the US Supreme Court will hear an appeal.
