It was pretty clear that he was talking about visual design and interaction. None of the things you list here are in that domain. One is a new app, one is a voice UI and one is an Internet-based storage service.

"None of the things you list here are in that domain. One is a new app ..."

Since the very sentence I was responding too was about apps ("iOS is stagnant, reviews of recent Apple designed skeuo-heavy apps bemone the lack of functionality") I fail to see how talking about app functionality is some huge leap of logic on my part.

"he was talking about visual design and interaction. None of the things you list here are in that domain"

How is voice control not about interaction?

Perhaps it should be read as "visual design and [visual] interaction."

You think voice integration isn't interaction? That's literally a form of interaction with the device that was not there in iOS 1.

I feel pretty sure there was a "visual" in there you're ignoring.

Didn't know you meant visual(design and interaction). Still though, it's a little frustrating to say they've stagnated. Apple is very, very long-term focused.
