This article explores how Apple's digital design, through interaction and interface design, has led to its success. It reviews the development history of Apple's digital design, emphasizing the profound influence of Steve Jobs. Jobs' unique creativity and deep understanding of consumer psychology allowed Apple's product designs to deeply attract users. The article further analyzes Apple's user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) design, highlighting these as the most crucial components of digital design. Apple's design style centers on simplicity, drawing inspiration from Zen and minimalist principles absorbed in Japan, which are reflected in all of Apple's products. By comparing different systems and cross-device interactions, the article demonstrates Apple's leading position in the field of digital design. Additionally, it discusses how Apple has created a full-scenario ecosystem through deep integration of hardware, software, and services, enhancing user loyalty and operational efficiency. Ultimately, the article summarizes Apple's successful experiences in UI and UX design and anticipates future innovation challenges.
