US Department of Justice Lawsuit Against Apple: The Implication for Super Apps and Market Dominance

US Department of Justice Lawsuit Against Apple: The Implication for Super Apps and Market Dominance 
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Last Thursaday, the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) initiated a significant lawsuit against Apple Inc., leveling allegations such as suppressing the growth of cloud gaming services and the burgeoning sector of ‘super apps’. 

According to the DOJ’s allegations, Apple has deliberately hampered the development of these innovative services in an attempt to safeguard its dominant position in the mobile market. The lawsuit represents a significant challenge to Apple’s business practices and could have far-reaching implications for the potential of mini-apps within super apps, a concept that has gained considerable traction, especially in Asian markets. 

“Super apps”, epitomized by China’s WeChat (known as Weixin in domestic market), are singular applications that bundle multiple services together. They incorporate functionalities ranging from messaging and social media to mobile payments, all under one umbrella. This model is further enhanced by “mini-apps” or “mini-programs”, sub-applications that reside within the super app, providing a multitude of services within a single interface. 

This innovation optimizes mobile resources, offering users a seamless experience as they access diverse services without switching between different apps. For developers, mini-apps simplify the process of maintaining and updating apps across different platforms. Instead of having to push separate updates for Android and iOS, developers can manage all mini-programs within a single app. This not only reduces development and maintenance costs but also ensures a more seamless user experience across different platforms. 

While the super app model has found considerable success in Asian markets, it’s also gaining ground in the United States. Snapchat’s “Snap Minis” and Facebook’s Shops are prime examples of this model’s implementation. Snap Minis are pared-down versions of apps within Snapchat’s chat section, allowing users to engage in various activities without leaving the platform. Similarly, Facebook Shops and Instagram Shops enable businesses to set up online stores within the social media platforms, exemplifying the mini-app concept. Uber’s expansion to include food delivery and courier services within its original ride-hailing app further showcases this trend.

These examples from US-based developers underscore the growing recognition of the potential of mini-apps and super apps. They represent a significant innovation that could reshape the mobile app landscape by enhancing user experience, simplifying app development and maintenance, and introducing a more competitive environment. 

However, the development and distribution of these mini-apps have recently come under scrutiny due to regulatory concerns and legal battles, particularly in the context of Apple’s alleged anti-competitive practices. The DOJ’s lawsuit suggests that Apple views mini-apps as a threat because they could diminish the importance of the App Store and Apple’s control over app distribution. If super apps with mini-programs become the primary gateways for users, reliance on Apple’s ecosystem could be reduced, potentially undermining Apple’s market position.

The DOJ argues that Apple views these super apps as a threat to its monopoly power because they offer a range of services without tying users to a specific ecosystem. In response, Apple has allegedly enforced strict rules for displaying and categorizing mini-programs within these super apps, effectively blocking their inclusion on the App Store.

The popularity of super apps and mini-programs in Asia, particularly in China with platforms like WeChat, indicates a shift in global technology trends. This could influence the development of digital services worldwide and prompt regulatory bodies to consider the impact of such innovations on market competition and consumer welfare.
