Apple of course has a laundry list of patents and it is ever expanding. The latest is one that ex-Apple iOS chief Scott Forstall would have been really proud of. While he is gone, his UI lives on, until Jony Ive and the gang get on with iOS 7 at least.
Apple was recently awarded the patent for “page flipping”. This skeuomorphism sits well with Apple iOS products and will certainly give rival devices a paper cut if they try and copy it too closely.
While this may look like an unimportant patent, many of Apple’s lawsuits revolve around the simpler features. So this is a big win for the Cupertino-based company. Check out the image below to see what we mean by page flipping.
