qz.com/apple-game-boy-emulator-app-store-1851411823
Quick Glance: Apple Removes iGBA Emulator from App Store for Policy Violations
- Apple has officially announced the removal of the iGBA Game Boy emulator from the App Store due to violations of the store's policies related to spam and copyright issues, with no specific details provided.
- The developers of iGBA created a similar version of the popular open-source GBA4iOS emulator by Riley Testut. Despite iGBA reaching the top of the App Store charts after its release this weekend, complaints arose regarding the app being a clear imitation overloaded with advertisements.
- The reasons behind Apple's decision to remove iGBA are still unclear. Clarification on the app removal process has been requested from Apple, and this article will be updated once additional information is received.
- An intriguing feature of iGBA was the capability for iPhone users to download any Game Boy game ROMs from the internet. However, the app's removal raises uncertainty about Apple's stance on allowing ROM-loading apps in the App Store. Nintendo has explicitly stated on its US customer support website that downloading pirated copies of its games is illegal, but whether Nintendo has reached out to Apple on this matter remains ambiguous.

Apple lays off over 600 employees in California after abandoning electric car project
techcrunch.com/2024/04/05/apple-lays-off-over-600-employees-in-california-after-abandoning-electric-car-plans/
Quick Glance: Apple's Workforce Reduction and Project Termination in California
- Following the cancellation of the electric car project, Apple is letting go of 614 employees in California. The affected employees were informed on March 28, with the changes taking effect on May 27. They were based at eight locations in Santa Clara.
- Most affected employees were primarily working at buildings related to the cancelled car project, with others involved in next-generation screen development.
- Apple wrapped up both projects in February. The company initiated its car project, internally known as 'Project Titan,' in 2014 and announced its cancellation on February 27. Some remaining employees transitioned to Apple's generative AI projects.
- Reports indicate that Apple ceased its efforts on designing and developing next-generation displays around the same time. Initially intended for the Apple Watch, these displays were planned for potential integration into other company devices. These layoffs signify Apple's initial significant job cuts post-pandemic.
