Apple design wiz Jony Ive has been removed from the company’s leadership page, indicating the man behind some of the tech giant’s biggest products, from the iPhone to the iPod, has officially exited the company.
Ive’s departure has been expected for months now, after he announced in June he’d be leaving Apple to start a new design company. His removal from the company’s leadership page was first reported by The Verge on Thursday.
Apple did not immediately respond to TheWrap’s request for comment.
Ive had been with Apple since the early ’90s, ultimately taking the reins of its design team in 1996.
