Apple App Store, Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, iCloud (Account & Sign In, Calendar, Drive, Keychain, Mail, and Web Apps), iOS Device Activation, Find My, Maps (Display, Navigation, Search, and Traffic), AppleCare on Device, iTunes Store, Fitness Plus, Podcasts, and Radio were among the Apple apps affected by the outage.
Over 4,000 customers reported difficulty accessing Apple Music, and as many as 4,000 users reported problems accessing iCloud, according to outage detecting website Downdetector.com. Users also reported problems with “Find My iPhone,” the Apple Store, maps, and customer service.
The Cupertino, California-based tech behemoth had responded to certain Twitter users who had been affected by the outage. The cause of the outages, however, is unknown. Apple’s corporate employees working from home and retail employees, according to Bloomberg, were also having problems. The disruption caused delays in product repairs and pickups, as well as restricted access to internal websites for employees.
Meanwhile, the Russian App Store has lost roughly 6,982 mobile apps since the start of the Ukraine invasion, as numerous companies have decided to remove their apps and games from the Apple App Store. According to data shared with TechCrunch by app intelligence firm Sensor Tower, those apps had been downloaded around 218 million times in Russia, accounting for about 3% of their total 6.6 billion installs worldwide.
