Google reaches tentative settlement with states over alleged Android app store monopoly

Google tentatively settled with state attorneys general over claims it abused market power in the Google Play Store.
The states accused Google of inflating app prices through anti-competitive conduct in the Android app market.
Google still faces separate antitrust lawsuits from the DOJ, Epic Games, and others regarding search and advertising.
The settlement terms are confidential pending approval by state AGs and Google's board.
This lawsuit is part of ongoing scrutiny of alleged anti-competitive practices by major tech firms.
