DescriptionApple has required absolutely all participants in the Apple Developer Program in Brazil to sign the updated license agreement (Attachment 12) no later than July 6, 2026. Otherwise, they will lose access to distribution. However, the creator of Fortnite (Epic Games), which sponsors AltStore, has already called the new rules “anti-competitive” due to hidden fees. The key question is whether industry media outlets (RBC Investments / TechCrunch) will report on an official class-action lawsuit or a mass boycott by Brazilian studios refusing to sign the contract by the deadline.
ConditionsYes: if, by July 6, 2026 (11:59 p.m.), a major Brazilian developers’ association or the courts officially block the new Apple rules from taking effect due to protests.No: if, by the specified deadline, the rules take effect as scheduled without any legal stay.
