Can someone explain Apple's design approach? IMO, most of their apps are bland and blindingly white, and seem almost unfinished. Doesn't this distract from the content in a way? Not trying to be rude, I just don't have much UI/UX experience and I'm trying to understand it.

For instance, in the case of an app that handles audiovisual content, the content ends up dominating the focus while the app itself fades into the background. It gets out of the way and lets the user focus on the task at hand. Quite a contrast from the approach of many third-party iOS developers, which often put a lot of energy into creating a comparatively flashy custom UI/UX for their their apps, often as a method of branding.
