How is it a “blatant attempt to copy Apple”? The icons are round, yes, but so is the watch and Apple’s is not round. Round icons make sense for a round screen. One of the reasons Apple made round icons is to leave open that possibility. I guarantee it.
Nope. Nothing other than round icons.
Blah bla ha ha ha. Copy Apple . No way. The traditional round face is copying watches of yesterday, alot nicer than the Apple watch shape.
Looks a lot nicer than an apple watch anyways…
“…exactly…”
You might want to look that word up in the dictionary.
🙂
I like the round look better but that’s a personal preference.
What a joke. Those icons aren’t fooling anyone. Move the sun to the other side of the clouds. They basically “sample” Apple’s design like a music artist samples another song to make a new song.
