Introduced in 2001, iTunes allows Apple users to store their collection of songs in one place.

The smartphone market itself has just started to skyrocket in prestige thanks to the presence of Blackberry. However, all that changed when the iPhone was released.
The first iPhone released at a price $499 and has a touch screen, something that was still rare in those days.
Thanks to the iPhone, Apple's corporate value skyrocketed from $100 billion to $950 billion. iPhone sales alone account for 60% of the company's revenue.
The presence of the iPhone also changed the map of mobile phone sales, especially after Google released Andoid in 2008, causing Nokia and Blackberry to falter.
The new iPhone 11 series was officially released a few days ago, can this latest Apple flagship product be the next successor? Let's wait.
6. The App Store

For this reason, initially the applications on the iPhone were only applications produced by Apple.
In 2008, Jobs softened a bit and finally released App Store which gives developers the opportunity to create applications for the iPhone after obtaining approval from Apple.
The presence of the App Store has made application and game developers appear. Until now, the App Store has become one of the main sources of income for Apple.
7. iPad

However, Apple has succeeded in proving that public prejudice is wrong. Their iPad is selling well in the market thanks to the many advantages it offers.
Having experienced a decline in sales, Apple changed its strategy by making the iPad Pro for professionals and a cheap version of the iPad for education.
If you look at the list above, these products were released when Steve Jobs was still at Apple.
When Jobs left the company in 1985, no Apple product was truly great until he did comeback in 1996.
In addition, after Jobs died in 2011, Apple also impressed walking in place. The new products they release are just pencils and smart watches.
This could be evidence that Jobs' presence at Apple had a major influence in spawning successful product innovations.
