1xBet Telegram Channel Blocked on Apple Devices

The Telegram channel ONE X, operated by iGaming brand 1xBet, has become inaccessible on Apple devices. Users attempting to access the channel are shown a system message citing a violation of App Store content guidelines, referencing Section 1.1 of Apple's app placement rules instead of the channel's regular content feed.

Section 1.1 of Apple's App Store guidelines covers objectionable content, including material referencing religion, race, sexual orientation, and nationality in an inappropriate manner. This is not the first instance of such a restriction affecting a 1xBet-linked Telegram channel: a similar block previously affected the channel 1X Kazakhstan. No further details regarding the specific content that triggered the restriction on ONE X, or whether 1xBet has appealed the decision, were disclosed.

The recurring pattern of Apple restricting access to 1xBet-affiliated Telegram channels suggests ongoing content moderation concerns tied to the operator's channel material under Apple's App Store guidelines, which apply broadly to content accessible through apps distributed via the platform, including messaging apps like Telegram hosting third-party channels.
