This has been an ongoing issue, albeit not with examples this egregious. If there's one thing I hope the DMA provides, it's a compelling case to Apple to more carefully review and reject scams worldwide. Every time an app like this slips through, it makes the platform worse. While some failures are expected, I really want Apple to do better than to let a direct impersonation of a password manager through.


i'm not sure i understand you. you're saying third party app stores will incentivise apple to improve their quality control to better differentiate them from competing app stores?


Yeah, I mean, that's what I would hope? Especially if a competing app store were to surface with "better" standards for this. As someone residing in the USA, I don't directly benefit from the DMA, but I would sure like to have the App Store improve.
