Applications disappear from the App Store because of a DSA rule
The Digital Services Regulation (DSA) entered into force in March 2024 aims to make the environment digital "safer, more equitable and more transparent ». It therefore imposes many rules on online platforms, especially on application stores. Thus, developers must now«designate a point of contact for the authorities, as well as for users».
The European Commission granted a certain period to online platforms to enter the nails. The ultimatum coming to an end,Apple has deleted applications that do not have contact information from the European App Stores. «Due to the European Union digital services law, your applications will be withdrawn from the App Store in the European Union, unless you provide your trader status and check your merchant address"Said the American company to the developers concerned in an email.

So don't be surprised if you can't find an app in the application store in the coming days. In any case, European legislation once again plays tricks on the Cupertino firm. Remember thatApple risks a record fineIn order not to have respected a DMA rule.
