Apple Gives Homepage Tribute to Commemorate Muhammad Ali’s Life

June 05, 2016 by macjeff

To honour the life of the legendary boxer Muhammad Ali, Apple has updated its homepage with his picture and a quote from him.

The legendary boxer passed away on Saturday at age 74. Ali was admitted into hospital earlier in the week due to respiratory issues. He was also suffering from Parkison’s disease from a long time that further worsened matters.

Ali’s photo is accompanied by one of his legendary quotes – “Tye man who has no imagination has no wings.”

"He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life." Rest in peace #MuhammadAli

— Tim Cook (@tim_cook) June 4, 2016

Apple’s CEO Tim Cook and Phil Schiller had also tweeted commemorative tweets about Ali.

The great boxer had featured in Apple’s ‘Think Different’ ad in 1997.

Cameraxis then allows you to adjust the properties of your photos in a wide variety of ways, and apply hundreds of different artistic designs, text, and filters.

Skill Game ( $2.99 → FREE )

The objective is to connect all of the numbers in ascending order without touching the lines you’ve already created. The process of doing so, however, requires a deft hand and a little strategy.

The game includes an unlimited number of randomly generated levels, adaptive difficulty levels, and achievements and leaderboards via Game Center.

You're also able to print cutouts right from within the app so you and your child can continue the experience away from the screen.

Digit Shelves ( $1.99 → FREE )

Digit Shelves presents you with five different numbers: 10, 20, 100, 500, and 1,000. Each number has spaces to fill with more numbers. At the bottom of the screen you’ll be presented with a random number, and you must place it in a space with a drag and drop. The idea is to fill the spaces with numbers in order to create the largest possible numbers without going over.
