The European Commission designated Apple as a gatekeeper under the Digital Markets Act for its iOS and iPadOS platforms, as well as its App Store and its Safari browser. VisionOS is nowhere in that list, but Apple is getting ahead of the commission this time and has announced that apps for the headset distributed on the App Store in the EU can offer alternative payment options. As 9to5Mac notes, Apple made the announcement just before the Vision Pro is released in the region — the headset will be available in France and Germany starting on July 12.
For developers to be able to offer alternative payment methods outside of the App Store, visionOS version 1.2 is required. Developers can already offer alternative payment solutions on Apple's other platforms in the EU, and in those cases, users are redirected to a third-party provider or a website to pay for their purchase or subscription. Chances are, that's also how it's going to work for the headset.

Amazon Prime Day is right around the corner, officially starting on July 16, but early deals are already starting to trickle in. For instance, the Samsung Galaxy A35 smartphone is currently available for $350, which is a discount of $50 and a record-low price for the mid-level handset.
The A35 just became available in the US back in April, so the discount comes as a nice surprise. This is a capable smartphone with a 6.6-inch Super AMOLED display that boasts a variable refresh rate up to 120Hz, just like its cousin the Galaxy A55

Here's what you need to know about why this happens and what you can do to fix the problem.
Why your Google Drive storage space doesn't free up after deleting files
It can be puzzling when you remove files from Google Drive and see that your storage capacity isn't affected. The reason for this is simpler than you might think: "deleted" files are actually just moved to Trash, where they continue to take up storage space.
Google does it this way because it's a security measure that prevents users from accidentally deleting important files.
Normally, Google Drive keeps deleted files in Trash for 30 days before actually deleting them. This gives you enough time in case you change your mind and need to retrieve deleted files.
But if you need to free up storage space right away, you don't have to wait. You can simply empty the Trash manually.
