Twitter's new boss Elon Musk has tweeted that Apple has threatened to remove Twitter from its App Store. However, why Apple would do this, but its information has not been given. Elon Musk said in another tweet that maybe Apple is anti-free speech, and that's why Twitter is being threatened.

In fact, after the takeover of Twitter by Elon Musk, Apple has also removed its advertisements from Twitter. Nothing can be said about Apple's strategy behind this. But if Apple really removes Twitter from the App Store, it will be a huge loss for Twitter.

Let us tell you that Apple is the world's most valuable mobile brand, and people all over the world use it. Twitter will suffer a lot if Twitter is removed from the App Store. Also, Apple users using Twitter will also have to face a lot of problems.

Around 553K people have downloaded Twitter on Apple's app store so far.

In the US, Twitter app was downloaded over 6 million times in Q4 2020. The vast majority of app downloads were from the App Store

According to watcher guru, Apple takes a 30% tax from app developers who make over $1 million through the ‌App Store‌ on an annual basis. Apple's App Store is the equivalent to a 30% tax on the Internet.

Apple App store editor writes that 'We rely on Twitter to help us express our thoughts and keep up with the news. And with Twitter’s Apple TV app (our 2016 App of the Year), we’ve also got a bigger window into current events and topical discussions. From breaking-news tweets to live video feeds—and even Thursday Night Football—the benefits of that little bird are always getting bigger.'
