Apple Accused by Epic of Failing to Fix App Store as Court Asked

Apple Inc. hasn’t properly complied with a court order to open its App Store to allow outside payment options weeks after its bid to resist those changes hit a dead end, Epic Games Inc. told a judge.

After the US Supreme Court refused Jan. 16 to wade into a three-year feud between the maker of the popular Fortnite game and the technology giant, Apple said it would let all third-party apps sold in the US include an outside link to a developer website to process payments for in-app purchases. Apple has followed through with that but is still asking developers to reimburse the company with a commission of up to 27% for purchases made outside the App Store.
