iOS History, How did we get from a platform that began without third-party apps, multitasking, or even copy / paste support to where we are today?

HISTORY
Apple's Steve Jobs introduced the iPhone to the
world on January 9th, 2007. In the five-plus years
since then, the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch have
literally redefined the entire world of mobile
computing. That world is moving so quickly that iOS
is already amongst the older mobile operating
systems in active development today.

4. IOS ACTUALLY BEGAN LIFE WITH A
DIFFERENT NAME: OS X

During the original iPhone announcement, Apple
touted that it ran on the same Unix core as Mac OS
X and that it used many of the same tools.
However, it was clear even then that while there
may be some shared elements between OS X and
this new phone OS, it was a different-enough beast
to warrant its own branding. When the original
iPhone launched, the OS was called "iPhone OS"
and it kept that name for four years, only changing
to iOS with the release of iOS 4 in June of 2010.
For the sake of simplicity (and because it's a muchless awkward phrase), I'm going to indulge in a little
revisionist history here and refer to all versions of
the operating system as "iOS" in this piece.

15. WHAT'S NEXT FOR IOS?

In the six years since iOS was unveiled, we've seen
the conversation move from "Is this a true
smartphone?" to "Can this replace a computer?"
That change is a testament not just to the march of
technological progress, but to Apple's ability to
reinvent its operating system over the years.
Reporting by Dieter Bohn and Aaron Souppouris.
