The main proektirovshik Apple has admitted that he envied weather Yahoo, then Apple experienced a copy. An employee of Yahoo Marissa Mayer told about the conversation with Jonathan YWAM, in which he admired the design of a weather app.
We released a new book, Nicholas Carlson, "Marissa Mayer and the war for the salvation of Yahoo". It Marissa Mayer told the author about his own meeting with the main proektirovschikom Apple Jonathan YWAM. One of the first projects, which she began to work at the firm Yahoo has become a weather app for the iOS operating system, i.e., for iPhone and iPad.
The Yahoo Weather came out in early April 2013. It struck the users own beauty and won the Apple Design award-winning. The application was determined by the location of the user and load photo from Flicr, consistent with the weather in this place. For example, inhabitants of Moscow would have noticed the snowy Kremlin or VDNKH. Right after you exit the application may 1, 2013 Mayer faced Ivom on one of the presentations. He said that just tore up the new Yahoo.
"I'm so jealous," said Ive with his English accent.
"Johnny," said Meyer, "if you are jealous, Yahoo Weather, our new solutions for Flickr you just try to advitise".
Later in the fall of 2013, Apple released a fully modified iOS 7 version, which has changed the design of the system itself and all the icons and applications. New weather app Apple now almost completely repeated design Yahoo Weather says MacDigger.
Interestingly, quite a long time Yahoo was considered the official General supplier data for application to Apple, but not so long ago it was weather.com. And Yahoo Weather, famous in Russian App Store as "Yahoo Weather" is still available for download and free of charge. It should be noted that its functions and still remain much wider than the usual Apple app.
