On 28 October 2016, the Japanese Fair Trade Commission (JFTC) opened an investigation into Apple for alleged anti-competitive App Store practices. JFTC noted that Apple's mobile operating system only lets users sign into their accounts and doesn’t allow them to set up new accounts or manage existing ones, e.g. making new subscriptions, within the app. The users have to go to the website of the app developer, which according to JFTC could be classified as anticompetitive behaviour.
