Apple is still trying to get trademarks and patents this year for almost everything he has included in his new system iOS and so it is not surprising that during the past weekend he obtained a trademark for one of the new icons. Operating system iOS 7 offers a very big change in the appearance of the user environment, and whoever used the operating system icons with elements of skeuomorphism until now will no longer be like that and skeuomorphism will not be found almost anywhere except for the background of the Notes application.
The first icon to which Apple has been trademarked, is the new FaceTime app icon. The new, green icon is visibly different from the previous one, and while the previous version had a gray leather background with a silver camera and camera optics, the new icon offers a green background with a white camera. But wait, haven't we seen this icon somewhere before? Whoever was in charge of making the icons looked into the history of the system iOS and practically revived the icon that symbolized the FaceTime application in its first weeks of existence. The green FaceTime icon appeared on the system for the first time iOS 4.0 and lasted in it only for a version iOS 4.3, when Apple released the iPad 2. In addition to this,one also Apple decided to obtain a patent for the icon iOS application version Pages. If you want to read our user guide Pages, you can do so in the link right here.
both the old and new icons are ugly, so I see no reason to patent it :D
I agree. The old one is complete nonsense :) a camera with a lens on the side.
And the new one is one of the worst in my opinion. ios7
I don't think you should say...
sluchatwho with the lens
Re: Amnart I agree, TM-forging icons is a real perversion.

apple patents, names, icons, the angle of rounding of the icons and the mobile normally, I am surprised that apple he didn't patent Alphabet, so everyone would have to pay him :D
The old one is more watchable and the lens was probably not supposed to show the front camera.
Apple he is patenting because he wants to have some ammunition in case someone comes and beats him up again.
