Seems like Steve Jobs made the vision of a computer that absolutely anyone could use a reality with the IPhone. It would be interesting to see the design process of the IPhone and Bob side by side. What were the differences in methodology that lead to one being a disaster and the other being a legendary success.

I have elder relatives who have trouble using the iPhone, in particular after the flat UI was introduced with iOS 7. The UI and behavior can be quite inscrutable.

  • Agreed and I have witnessed many users struggling with all modern UIs. Android and iOS are far too much for most people if they have to do anything more than opening an app. To make it worse, the UIs are always changing drmatically.
