Although she found that the requirements of the first lawsuit did exceed the statute of limitations, Cydia's amendment lawsuit stated that Apple Updates in 2018 and 2021 are intended to harm IOS application distributors such as Cydia. Judge Gonzalez Rogers said in his ruling: "as the plaintiff's claims rely on Apple's technological updates, Cydia is completely excluded. These claims are time limited.".
The case began in December, 2020. Cydia's lawsuit claimed that apple used its monopoly position to deal with it. Cydia claimed that Apple was forced to shut down because it was suspected of illegally controlling the distribution of apps on IOS. Cydia closed in 2018.
