# Apple’s Phil Schiller hands over App Store and Events to Eddy Cue

**[The Next Web](https://daily.dev/sources/tnw)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Phil Schiller has stepped down from running Apple's App Store and product events, retaining his Apple Fellow title while the App Store moves to Eddy Cue's services division under Carson Oliver's day-to-day management. The shift happens the day before John Ternus becomes CEO and Tim Cook moves to executive chairman, and thirteen days after Apple replaced its EU Core Technology Fee with a flat 5% commission. Schiller's App Store role had increasingly become regulatory, following a €500M EU fine, a lost General Court appeal over app store separation, and a US court finding that Cook overruled Schiller's push to comply with an anti-steering injunction.

## Questions this post answers

### Who now oversees Apple's App Store after Phil Schiller stepped down?

Eddy Cue's services division now oversees the App Store, with Carson Oliver running it day to day. Phil Schiller keeps his Apple Fellow title but no longer manages the store or Apple's product events. The change took effect the day before John Ternus became Apple's chief executive, succeeding Tim Cook, who moved to executive chairman.

### What did Apple replace the EU Core Technology Fee with?

Apple replaced the Core Technology Fee, which charged €0.50 per install above one million, with a flat 5% commission on 18 August, alongside eased rules for rival app stores in the EU. This followed a €500M European Commission fine issued in April 2025 for blocking developers from telling users about cheaper offers elsewhere.

### Did Phil Schiller support or oppose Apple's compliance with the anti-steering injunction?

A US judge found in April 2025 that Phil Schiller had argued internally for Apple to comply with the anti-steering injunction, but Tim Cook overruled him, with the ruling stating that Cook 'chose poorly.' Schiller then stepped down from running the App Store thirteen days after Apple settled related EU fee disputes.
