10 functions "borrowed" by Apple from Android

In recent years the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), borrowed a number of functions from the platform Android those from Google, probably as a "revenge" for the fact that Android would have implemented so much of the functionality of iOS from the very beginning, at least according to Steve Jobs.

Apple did not shy away from taking over functions from the company Google and to present them as innovations of iOS, and in some cases its implementations turned out to be really better than those thought by the Apple company, but this despite the fact that Apple criticized Samsung for copying the design of iPhones and not only that.
