Musk even tweeted out a meme that suggested he was 'going to war' with Apple over paying 30%.
But there are signs that Apple is watching the social network closely to see if it violates any App Store policies.
Philip Shoemaker, the former head of Apple's app review and current CEO of Identity.com, said Schiller's move to delete his account reminded him of a company making moves to "prepare for war." He believes that Apple's app review department is keeping a close eye on Twitter's content moderation under Musk to see if more questionable content, such as porn, slips through.
Apple requires apps to pay fees between 30% and 15% for digital purchases. When Epic Games put in a system to get around Apple's cut, Apple removed it. If Twitter were to pull a similar move, it might force Apple's hand.
