IPhone sales may decrease from Apple, but the company’s services department, which includes the application store, iCloud, music, TV+, and other subscriptions, is still rising.
The technology giant Cubino I mentioned On Thursday, her work in services had the highest level of revenue ever of $ 26.3 billion for a quarter ending on December 28, an increase of 14 % on an annual basis. CEO Tim Cook said during a profit call on Thursday that the services achieved nearly $ 100 billion in revenue during the past year. In addition, Apple reported that there are more than a billion subscriptions through its services, including through third -party applications in the application store.

The organizational impact
Regarding the issue of subscriptions, investors wanted to know how a new organizational environment could affect these numbers.
Although investors have not explicitly asked about the Trump administration’s impact on Apple’s revenue directly, one of the questions focused on whether the new organizational changes may be useful. That is, is it possible to reflect a “more balanced organizational environment” the previous opposite winds that Apple may now absorb in its results?

The basic debate focuses on the percentage of the percentage that justifies the Apple to take from the applications it hosts in the application store and transactions that flow through it.
Last year, one of the main anti -monopoly case was finally ended when it was the US Supreme Court Ultimately heard hearing Calling an epic apple decision, which was initially submitted by Fortnite playmaker. This means that the minimum court decision is that the technology giant was still a monopoly.
However, this decision means that Apple must allow application companies to direct customers to the web from the links within their applications.
Although the lawsuit was largely in favor of Apple, the Epic won a similar condition with Google. Looking at partial victory, other developers may be inspired by following their legal procedures against Apple or Google, hoping to continue to sculpt in Apple Chokehold in the application distribution market.
