um, why aren't the clock apps for iOS 6 on the iPad and iPhone the same? :confused:

I like the look of the iPad version better than the iPhone. It seems really lazy of Apple to make ALLLLL the other apps the exact same for each device (icon and all), but the clock app is completely different.

annoyning....

This way they won't have to pay royalties to the Swiss designer of the iconic clock for every iphone, just every ipad.
 
Wouldn't that make them the opposite of lazy?

No use complaining, how many hours a day do you spend looking at that app icon? If it kills you, when a jailbreak comes out you can swap it with whatever pleases your pretty little heart.

But they do use the icon on the iPhone. Ask Siri for the time for a city and the clock she brings up is the same as the Swiss iPad Clock.
 
i think the point is that the app icons should be the same. regardless if it's swiss or not, regardless of the in-app icon...why do all the apps look the same on the iphone/ipad except for the clock app icon.

it's sloppy work on apples part, that's why.
