Quick answer

Apple is introducing cross-developer subscription bundles and exclusive Suites in the App Store, set to launch with iOS 27 this fall.

Apple has announced an expansion of App Store functionality, introducing subscription bundles that allow users to consolidate subscriptions for multiple apps into a single package. This feature mirrors existing offerings for streaming services like Apple TV+ and Peacock. For example, users could bundle Instagram* Plus and Tinder Platinum together.

In addition to bundles, Apple unveiled Suites—exclusive sets of subscriptions that cannot be purchased individually. These sets will be offered as a single subscription, simplifying user choices while potentially increasing developer revenue.

The updates were announced at WWDC alongside other App Store changes. Apple also tightened rules for 'opportunistic' apps that rarely update or fail to attract audiences. Furthermore, the company dropped the requirement to support Intel chips in Mac App Store apps and introduced mandatory disclosure of 'social features' in apps to ensure accurate age ratings and Screen Time functionality.

Apple plans to reveal further details about these new features closer to summer, with the launch expected in fall 2024 alongside iOS 27 and other platform updates.
