In recent years, Apple has been part of a back and forth series with the European Commission. Most prominently, that's included the switch to USB-C, which is expected on the new iPhone 15 range later this year. The move will mark the first time Apple phones have used the connector, having previously made use of Apple's proprietary Lightning port.
Another change is the introduction of sideloading. This will mean that users must be able to download apps from sources other than the official App Store. Currently, that functionality isn't offered on the iPhone. Apple say this enables them to have complete control over the security of their devices, while developers have complained about the higher charges they impose.
