Epic files its Supreme Court response in Apple payment dispute
Epic submitted its response on November 13, defending the contempt finding over Apple’s implementation of external-payment links.
What changed
The Supreme Court docket confirms Epic’s submission and oral argument on January 11, 2027. Epic argues that injunctions must be read in context and prohibit circumvention. The filing is an argument by a party, not a new ruling or an immediate App Store policy change.
Why it matters
The dispute remains relevant to iOS businesses planning external checkout, but this filing alone does not change the payment rules developers must follow today.
