iOS was actually called OS X at the time. It was before they changed the name to iOS. But it was never called Mac OS X, which was the name of Apple's OS in 2007, which changed to just OS X around the time of the rebranding to iOS.
- snazz 4y agoIt didn't have a name, just "a version of OS X", then it was called iPhone OS when they released the SDK and the App Store.
- Maursault 4y agoIt was iPhoneOS at launch, but prior to that it was formally known as "OS X."
- eyelidlessness 4y agoThis was also part of how they debranded Mac OS X, which took some time but this is how it began. But it was understood clearly then that they were the ~same OS, and “OS X” was in common usage by Apple including by Jobs at the time too
