Apple Cuts 100 Jobs in Services Division, Prioritizes News Over Books

The layoffs affect teams in Apple Books and Apple News, marking the company's fourth round of job cuts this year.

Apple has laid off around 100 employees in its digital services group, focusing primarily on the Apple Books team.
This is part of a strategic shift, with Apple Books becoming less of a priority for the company.
Apple News remains a key focus, despite some job cuts in that team as well.
The layoffs represent Apple's fourth round of job cuts in 2024, following reductions in other projects like self-driving cars and microLED displays.
Affected employees have a 60-day window to find another role within the company.
