The UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has "provisionally concluded" that Apple's restrictive mobile browser policies limit innovation. After an independent inquiry group shared its findings on browser competition on iOS and Android, the governing body's board plans to conduct an in-depth assessment of how Apple and Google constrict third-party browsers on their platforms. However, Apple — with its more closed ecosystem — appears to have borne the brunt of the CMA's concern.
The CMA's investigation is based on the premise that Apple and Google have an effective duopoly on mobile platforms, allowing them to set the rules of how mobile browsers work. The board says third-party browser developers have complained that they're constricted by rules like Apple's requirement to use the company's WebKit browser engine.
"The group has provisionally found that Apple's rules restrict other competitors from being able to deliver new, innovative features that could benefit consumers," the CMA wrote. "Other browser providers have highlighted concerns that they have been unable to offer a full range of browser features, such as faster webpage loading on iPhone."
