Two people knowing about the partnership, the New York Times report says that the iPhone manufacturer was paid $ 18 billion in 2021.
Google's Apple's “concern”

After that, Google, reportedly, was looking for ways to reduce Spotlight by producing my own version of iPhones. He was also planning to convince the iPhone more users to use Google's Chrome web browser instead of Apple's Safari browser.
The same topic was spoken by the Microsoft Director General Satia Nadela But in a slightly different light. Although New York's report says that Google is concerned about Apple's efforts to improve his search technology, Nadela's comments suggested that Apple feared that Google would use its popular services such as Gmail to convince users of Chrome.
Nadela also said Microsoft wanted to be a default browser on Apple devices, but money was a restriction. His testimony also meant that Microsoft was also ready to pay $ 15 billion to become an Apple's default search engine.
