How to allow blocking only certain apps using iOS16 ScreenTime API, FamilyActivityPicker
Is there a way to allow blocking "only" social media apps using the FamilyActivityPicker? I assume the current standard way of app-blocker apps are, Users allow the use of ScreenTime API Users freely choose the apps they want to block via the Picker list Users press the start button Selected apps blocked What I want to achieve is either the below: Users allow the use of ScreenTime API Users press the start button Social media apps blocked (※ Apps pre-selected by the admin) or, as a workaround, Users allow the use of ScreenTime API Users choose the apps they want to block via the Picker list, but they are only allowed to select social media apps. Users press the start button Social media apps blocked

Game Apps IAP vs Web
Hi. Are there any game apps that sell game items via web stores that can be used on mobile as well? I know that "Reader apps" such as Netflix, Spotify, and Kindle sell subscriptions or content on the web while removing the IAP function within the app. This was a viable workaround for a long time as long as they don't guide users to the web signup page within the app. (Afterward, Apple carved out these product categories as "Reader apps" and now they are also allowed to guide users to the web within their app.) It is obvious that if game apps remove IAP and guide the users to their web store within the apps, they will get rejected, as seen in the Epic case. But what happens if game apps do not guide the users to their web store, just like Netflix and Spotify used to do? Can the users log in to the iOS app via email and equip or use the game items they purchased on the web? Are there any game products that do this? Thanks in advance.
