Title: Amazon Adds Purchase Button To iOS Kindle App Following App Store Rule
Changes

Link: https://apple.slashdot.org/story/25/05/06/142...

Amazon has updated its Kindle iOS app with a new "Get Book" button that
redirects users to complete purchases through their mobile browser, taking
advantage of recent App Store rule changes. The update follows Judge Yvonne
Gonzalez Rogers' April 30th ruling in Epic Games v. Apple, which bars Apple
from collecting a 27% commission on purchases made outside apps or
restricting how developers direct users to alternative payment options.
Previously, iOS users had to visit Amazon's website through a browser to buy
Kindle books -- a workaround implemented after Apple's 2011 rule changes
required developers to remove links to external purchasing options. Apple has
appealed the ruling but is complying in the interim.
