> Why is every mobile UI a copy of the first Iphone.

Windows Mobile was definitely not a copy of the first iPhone.[1] I already pointed out that it was, in fact, Apple who took inspiration from Metro - which was the first iteration of the modern flat UI.

Are you saying that Apple copied Windows Mobile UI for its first Iphone?

[zamalek]

No, for its fourth or fifth or thereabouts? It happened years after Metro, as did Google Material Design (a fantastic improvement to the platform).

So others copied Apple's first Iphone UI.

Now do you get it or are you still going to argue about this?

You mean app drawer with icons, which Nokia 7650 had in 2003?

Or touch only operated interface from Motorola a1000 from 2004?

And those are not by any means first phones in each category.

[sumedh]

and where are those companies today?

And why does it matter? Apple just ripped off their design, period.

[zamalek]

I give up.

No, they copied flat design in iOS 7.
