I'm not saying it's necessarily a bad thing, but a lot of these new features seem like they have been borrowed straight from android. Health looks similar to S Health, and the new keyboard features remind me of the Android keyboard quite a bit. Also, the quick respond notifications feature has been available to jailbroken device users for a while.
- izzydata 12y agoGood ideas tend to get adapted to many places. I also like how things started adapting the flatter minimalist UI. I have loved the way that looked forever, but only recently has it really taken off. Knowing apple though they will probably later on say that they created all of these things. Or at least apple fans will claim that apple created all these things.

- bane 12y agoI think we're in kind of a tick-tock iOS-Android cycle now. One OS will push forward, the other will refine for a cycle, then swap for the next one. I'd be happier if both here pushing forward, but there's a logic to letting your competitor do the user R&D work and market testing for you.
