    There are also statement come from the Apple spokesperson in which he said that “Apple customer has been dependent on App store by thinking it as the safe and trusted place where all developers follow the same set of rules, We’re grateful the court recognized that Epic’s actions were not good for their own customers and that any problems they may have encountered were their own making when they breached their agreement. For twelve years, the App Store has been an economic miracle, creating transformative business opportunities for large and small developers. We look forward to sharing this legacy of innovation and dynamism with the court next year.ā€
