As always, you can change the prices of your apps, in‑app purchases, and auto‑renewable subscriptions at any time. We know that there are a small set of APIs that can be misused to collect data about users’ devices through fingerprinting, which is prohibited by our Developer Program License Agreement. To prevent the misuse of these APIs, we announced at WWDC23 that developers will need to declare the reasons for using these APIs in their app’s privacy manifest. This will help ensure that apps only use these APIs for their intended purpose. As part of this process, you’ll need to select one or more approved reasons that accurately reflect how your app uses the API, and your app can only use the API for the reasons you’ve selected. Apps that host this content are responsible for ensuring all the software included in their app meets Apple’s high standards for user experience and safety.

Among the top 50 as a whole, the fastest-growing site for the second month in a row was liveuamap.com (61.7m million visits, up 2779%) which presents updates on the Ukraine war, now into its tenth month.

With Privacy Nutrition Labels and App Privacy Report, users can see what data an app collects and how it’s used.

The App Store Review Guidelines have been revised to support updated policies, upcoming features, and to provide clarification.

Last month Press Gazette reported that most of the world's top 10 biggest English news sites saw double-digit falls in traffic in November due to the effect of 2020's "Trump bump" which temporarily benefitted many sites covering US politics. Year-on-year comparisons however show a very different picture as January 2021 contained major news events such as Covid-19 surges and the Capitol insurrection and Joe Biden’s inauguration in the US. As in previous months where Press Gazette has reported traffic falls for most leading sites compared to one year ago, all of the ten biggest sites by number of visits saw significant year-on-year falls in traffic. Several of the world’s leading news sites including the BBC, New York Times and Guardian saw small month-on-month traffic increases in January. The biggest year-on-year growth overall, however, was to Live Universal Awareness Map (liveuamap.com) which had 74.8m visits, an increase of 3390% year-on-year.
