The iPod—and later the iPhone—changed our relationship to technology by making it feel personal, emotional, and always with us. People didn’t just use these devices; they formed daily habits around them and expected their music, photos, and information to be instantly available. Their simple design also showed that technology doesn’t need to feel complicated to be powerful. In my opinion, this shift made us expect all tech to be smooth, friendly, and almost invisible in how it works. As a result, interaction design today focuses on clearer layouts, fewer steps, and creating small moments of delight, because users now expect technology to fit naturally into everyday life.
