Having failed to get App Store charges stopped with one lawsuit, a law firm in China is trying again with a new complaint over the same issues.

China’s App Store again comes under fire
Back in 2021, individual consumer Jin Xin sued Apple China, demanding that Apple entirely cease its 30% App Store fee. Represented by Wang Qiongfei, the case further demanded recompense for lost income, but was completely thrown out in 2024.
Now according to Reuters, the same lawyer and law firm have filed the same complaint — but this time on behalf of a group of 55 users. The complaint has been filed with China’s State Administration for Market Regulation, which means the law firm hopes to see regulatory action taken against Apple.
