I already contacted the DMA authorities and complained how this has an effect on German diabetes communities and they replied that I am not the first one who approaches them on this and they are already investigating it.

Google is just trying how far they can push this.



Excellent, I emailed them too but no reply yet. Yeah, given that we should be able to choose what app store to install, this seems wildly illegal.


Since Apples App Store is DMA compliant, the EU won't do anything against this far less restrictive change from Google.


Do you have any pointers on how to find the correct authority and reach out? I'd like to inform my EU audience.
