The team involved really spent the time to make the web versions of these apps have an aesthetic unified with the iOS and Mac versions. As someone who does web stuff day in, day out... the difference between working and polished is huge. Apple has pulled out all the stops to make these polished apps. Kudos to them.

- lovskogen 15y ago'Too much effort' isn't known to perfectionists, which Apple strives to be.
