Apple updates and expands App Store age rating system

Apple is expanding its App Store age-rating system to include 13+, 16+, and 18+ categories, replacing some previous ratings, and requiring developers to answer new questions about content and controls. The update aims to improve child safety and content appropriateness, with automatic updates across the store and upcoming public release. It also aligns with broader legislative efforts to protect children online, offering more detailed guidance for parents and potentially reducing app visibility for higher-rated content.
