Google Chrome VP says that Apple's browser engine plan is 'overly restrictive'


The company leader in charge of Chrome showed support for Mozilla in a post on X.

Like other big tech companies, Apple announced its compliance plans for the European Union's Digital Markets Act, including support for third-party browsers and engines. "Apple isn't serious about supporting web browser or engine choice on iOS," said Parisa Tabriz, the vice president and general manager of Google Chrome, in a post on X. "We are still reviewing the technical details but are extremely disappointed with Apple's proposed plan to restrict the newly-announced BrowserEngineKit to EU-specific apps," said Mozilla spokesperson Damiano DeMonte.
