You are incorrect about the time frame on which Apple operates.

The working groups for this offering were forming in late 2018 at the absolute latest.



Maybe I'm wrong on the COVID thing, but it can't be denied Apple has access to privileged AppStore information much like Amazon does on its store.


This is so commonplace as to have a name: when Apple does this, we say that the app or apps got "Sherlocked".

Yes, I'm aware what "Sherlocked" is. :)

My point is not only about Apple copying products, but about having access to privileged AppStore data.
