Apple plans to expand App Store revenue sources by leveraging third-party AI apps

Apple's services business is under pressure, with App Store commissions declining due to regulation and a sluggish mobile game market. The company is considering introducing third-party AI apps to boost revenue. CFO Pareek said AI could be a reason for users to upgrade their devices and hinted that it might distribute third-party AI agents through the App Store to take a cut, but specific plans are still unclear.
