Italy’s competition watchdog says it has fined Google $123 million dollars for abuse of its dominant position due to its Android mobile operating system.

The regulators say Google does not allow JuicePass an electronic services app – which simply out means users could only use Google Maps.

Google has not been allowing the app on Android for two years.

On tip of the fine Google must now make JuicePass available on Android Auto.
