“Among other things, we resolved the misunderstanding regarding Twitter’s potential removal from the App Store,” Musk wrote. “Tim knew Apple never thought of that.” Musk never said what the root cause of his problem with Apple’s Twitter app was.

In addition to the App Store issue, Musk has also joined the growing ranks of developers to criticize the App Store’s 30 percent “hidden tax” on in-app purchases.

Musk also urged Cook to stop most of Apple’s ads on Twitter, claiming that the iPhone maker has “mostly stopped” advertising campaigns on the platform. The company is currently trying to reassure brands amid a wider pullback in advertising from the platform. Although the problem is solved for now, we will look into it later.
