I think they've improved in the "here's my design, make 10,000,000 copies" sense.
I do not thing they've interoperated with other companies well at a high level. Thunderbolt was all due to jobs - he got intel to do it (andy grove?). It's now back in intel's court now.
Instead they bring more and more in house. Their hardware can't run windows anymore. Their software has gotten less and less flexible. They let other languages rot, it's obj c and swift. Their hardware has gone back to making g4 cube type mistakes. again. and again. Ask anyone about the ports or the keyboard on an apple laptop and you'll get an earful.

Just my opinion.
