The iPod and iPhone changed the way we think about and use technology. Before these devices, technology was seen as a tool we used occasionally, like a computer for work or a phone for calls. But with the iPod and iPhone, technology became something we carry with us everywhere, becoming a part of our daily lives.

The iPod let us carry thousands of songs in our pocket. It made music personal and portable, so we could enjoy it anytime. The iPhone went even further. It combined many devices into one: a phone, a music player, a camera, and the internet. It brought everything we need into one small, easy-to-use device.

One big change was the touchscreen. Before iPd (and iPhone), we used keyboards or buttons. The iPhone introduced swiping, tapping, and pinching, making technology easier and more natural to use. These gestures felt simple, even for people who were not tech-savvy.

The iPhone also made us more connected. With mobile internet, we could send messages, browse the web, and use social media anytime, anywhere. This changed how we communicate and share information, making everything faster and more instant.

This shift changed interaction design too. Designers now focus on creating simple and clear layouts that work well on small screens. Features like swiping and tapping have replaced complicated menus. Mobile phones became the centre of design, and apps were built to work seamlessly across devices.
