IOS 9Has reached a share of over 50% of OS for mobile terminal in less than one week from the release on September 16. On the other hand, looking at the desktop terminal, the share of Mac OS is one digit lower than iOS, one digit lower.

However, the role required of the OS differs between the computer and the mobile terminal, and if it matches one, the advantage is lost, and either one alone can not obtain the best user experience, Cook said. "We are focusing on two OSs," revealed that there is no OS integration plan.

However, as you are preparing the "Handoff" function that hands over the task of handling between Apple-made terminals, it seems that you are careful that you can go back and forth between the terminal and the terminal without taking time and effort is.

Also in this dialogue we mention the relationship with Microsoft. Apple has a corporate strategy of "I do not have deep knowledge", so when you do something big you need to partner with a partner. So, although it is a competitor, if you partner with Microsoft, you can achieve more of what customers want, like Mac version Office.

Cook CEO added that "Because life is short, we have as many friends as possible".
