I did not know that Apple invented the gift card. Like they also invented the touch screen and smartphone. Thanks for the enlightenment.
Hint that was sarcasm.
Also Blockbuster was the first company to issue a gift card in 1995.
The first Gift Cards were produced by SSI Technologies, Edmond, OK for Blockbuster in 1995 after extensive research and test markets.

While SSI may have created the cards for Blockbuster a company from Tulsa, OK called Gift Card Services actually created and performed transactions as a gift card producer and processor in 1994 for a company called One-Hour Photo Pros.
The first multi touch device was the DiamondTouch in 2001.
There were many multi touch screen phones before the iPhone that ran Symbian which was first introduced in 2000.
The first smartphone was the Blackberry introduced in 1999.
Android was founded in 2003 and backed by Google in 2003 Apple started work on the iPhone and iOS in late 2004. So all evidence shows Google started work on Android before iOS
Also Google has been more original in Android than Apple in iOS. Google had voice commands before Apple. Google had cloud services before Apple. Google had the notification bar shade before Apple. So you are a idiot.
