iPhone may ban in India . unless...!
India may ban the iPhone if Apple continues to resist TRAI by not allowing DND App in iOS Store,
(don't worry Android users )
iPhone users may face ban to their devices in India within the next six months, making it impossible to use it for voice calls, sending SMS and use mobile data.... Why?
Well, because of the tussle between Apple and Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), India’s telecom operators will be obliged to de-recognize iPhones if the Tim Cook-led Cupertino-based tech giant doesn’t allow TRAI’s DND 2.0 app on its App Store.
TRAI had released an app called Do Not Disturb – now called Do Not Disturb (DND 2.0) – which when installed on a smartphone, allows the users to report pesky calls and SMS. The app is already available on Google’s Play Store, which means if you own an Android smartphone, you can download it and use it to register for DND as well as lodge a UCC (Unsolicited Commercial Communication) complaint with your telecom operator. Now this app does require permissions to access your contacts and SMS, and that’s where the problem lies with Apple.
TRAI doesn’t have any jurisdiction over smartphone makers in India, but it does have jurisdiction over the telecom operators in the country, and, TRAI recently released the Telecom Commercial Communication Customer Preference Regulation, 2018 under which the country’s telcos are obliged to de-recognize devices that don’t allow the installation of TRAI’s DND app.
Here’s what TRAI notes in its regulatory document
That means is if Apple remains in denial of allowing TRAI’s app on the App Store, then its iPhones will face ban in India within six months.
