Apple Intelligence Features Not Coming to European Union at Launch Due to DMA (www.macrumors.com)

Due to the regulatory uncertainties brought about by the Digital Markets Act, we do not believe that we will be able to roll out three of these [new] features -- iPhone Mirroring, SharePlay Screen Sharing enhancements, and Apple Intelligence -- to our EU users this year.

DMA is focused on preventing "gatekeepers" from unfairly favoring their own services and promoting interoperability.

  1. If Apple Intelligence were to prioritize Apple services like Apple Music or Apple Maps in searches or recommendations, the DMA would apply.
  2. iPhone Mirroring is only native to Apple devices which violates DMA's interoperability requirements.
  3. Similarly, Shareplay ScreenSharing will require an Apple device on both ends, meaning it also violates the DMA's interoperability
