Brazilian Court Reinstates Sideloading Mandate for iPhones, Giving Apple 90 Days to Comply

Brazilian court reinstates ruling, giving Apple 90 days to enable sideloading on iPhones amid ongoing legal battles.

Following a complaint by e-commerce giant MercadoLibre, Brazil's antitrust regulator CADE ruled in November 2023 that Apple’s anti-steering rules were illegal, requiring Apple to allow sideloading and other distribution methods within 90 days. Apple initially succeeded in getting this decision overturned by a Federal Civil Court, but on May 9, 2025, another federal court reinstated the original injunction, resetting the 90-day deadline for Apple to implement the changes. This ruling comes after a significant defeat for Apple in the U.S. regarding its case against Epic Games.
