How would you break up apple?
Decouple software and hardware two separate entities.
Both are way too big and offer too many advantages. Their ecosystem is Only getting bigger and bigger with more iot products.
Some personal thoughts:
Additionally APP store should to be more open to various different types of app stores.
They can have their own App Store which they guarneeyes high quality, but its need to be opened to other APP stores that follow certain guidelines. However I think with progressive apps, I think its possible to bypass some restrictions.
developers should t need to pay $100 to put their own apps on heir phone for more than 3 days(this was a problem last time I made an app)
Hardware peripherals seem to be very closed as well.
They ecosystem is only going to get bigger with more iot hardware, so having both software and hardware closed while being so big, means you are locked into both system with no customization. Apple can continue to copy successful iot products like peloton. bike and couple them with products from their ecosystem (phone, watch, glasses), to make the product more compelling. With Apple so big, other companies has no chance unless they have enough money to make that many successfully products.
this is the same thing google and Facebook have done with adverisiting:
data isnt just Instagram but from the entire profile they have created across all of thei products. so their ads are more successful due to the data from all of their products.
Apple needs to allow more competition within their system, it's the quality of their products that should be selling points, not closed ecosystems.
