As far as I understand, a monopoly position does not give the right to do whatever you want. A monopoly position is a big responsibility. Naturally, if they write in the rules that they do not take the same programs, then you had the opportunity to write a better program than the existing ones.

If your program was really better, then Apple with its actions is making everyone worse. And you, as a developer and users who are forced to use a worse application and Apple itself, which receives dissatisfied users... this needs to be corrected! In our case with the book, we could not copy anyone, since we have a completely unique story.
We initially did not want to publish the story in book format, because we believe that progress does not stand still and new opportunities to tell the story appear. So, in fact, we have a book, but in a new, more intimate format.
With its formal attitude, Apple also makes things worse for everyone, plus it destroys an entire class of applications that helped get children interested in reading. It may be easy for you to accept this state of affairs, but I see a responsibility not only to my team, who worked hard, but also to my mission - to give children a love of reading.
