    European DSA Recipients of Services Report

    Publication for the European Digital Services Act.

    In accordance with Article 24(2) of the Regulation (EU) 2022/2065
    of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 October 2022
    on a Single Market For Digital Services and amending Directive
    2000/31/EC (the Digital Services Act), set forth below are the
    numbers of average monthly active recipients in the EU of
    intermediary services within the scope of that Article,
    calculated as an average over the period of the six months to 31
    January 2023.

    Under Article 3(b) of the DSA, "recipients" of an intermediary
    service are natural or legal persons who use it, in particular
    for the purposes of seeking information or making it accessible,
    including business users, consumers and other users. Recipients
    of an online platform are "active" where they are "actually
    engaging with the service at least once in a given period of
    time, by being exposed to information disseminated on the online
    interface of the online platform, such as viewing it or listening
    to it, or by providing information".

    Online platforms with 45 million or more average monthly active
    recipients of the service in the Union, may be designated as very
    large online platforms (VLOPs). With this framework in mind, the
    below figures, compiled in accordance with Article 24 (2) of the
    DSA regarding recipients of the service, are approximated based
    on information that is readily available to Apple in the normal
    course of its business:

      + iOS App Store: 101 million
      + iPadOS App Store: 23 million
      + macOS App Store: 6 million
      + tvOS App Store: 1 million
      + watchOS App Store: under 1 million
      + Apple Books: under 1 million
      + Podcasts paid subscriptions: under 1 million

    Without prejudice to further consideration of the legal
    characterisation, Apple views each version of the App Store as a
    distinct online platform under the DSA, and only the iOS App
    Store may qualify as a VLOP. Nonetheless, Apple intends, on an
    entirely voluntary basis, to align each of the existing versions
    of the App Store (including those that do not currently meet the
    VLOP designation threshold) with the existing DSA requirements
    for VLOPs because the goals of the DSA align with Apple's goals
    to protect consumers from illegal content.
