Great job in the interview Khoi, way to be on your toes and respond so well to the questions. One of the issues with the new iOS I haven’t heard many people mention, is that by replacing so many icons with words, it makes it much harder for people with dyslexia to use the phone (15% of the US pop. according to the National Institutes of Health). It probably makes it harder for kids that can’t read yet. Is this an elitist design?
