Apple Updates App Store Disclosure Requirements

Apple is introducing two new content descriptors, “Dating and Relationships” and “Shared Location,” effective November 16. Developers must disclose if their apps offer dating features, including romantic or sexual interactions with virtual AI companions, or if they allow real-world location sharing.

Apps offering romantic or sexual interactions will require an 18-and-over age rating. Developers have until January 12, 2027, to complete these disclosures for all applications.
