Imran Chaudhri is a British-American designer, who is the CEO of Humane Inc., a company he co-founded along with his wife, Bethany Bongiorno. He is known for creating user interface and interaction designs for the iPhone.[1] While at Apple from 1995 to 2017,[2] he was a designer on products including the Mac, iPod, iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Apple Watch, AirPods, and HomePod.[3]

Career

After starting at Apple as an intern in 1995,[4] Chaudhri spent 19 years working at Apple as a designer.[5] He and fellow designer Bas Ording updated the appearance of macOS and worked to create a new touch-based interface, replacing buttons with gestures.[6][4] Chaudhri is credited as an inventor on several Apple patents, including a touch screen.[7]

Chaudhri was part of a small iPhone design team that made the original iPhone interface.[8][9][10] Previously, he worked on Dashboard, a widget interface on macOS.[11] In addition to creating many iPhone features with other designers, Chaudhri created a grid of square app icons to organize the iPhone's functions, commonly referred to as the home screen, complete with its rearrangement functionality.[11][12][13]

Chaudhri, who was scheduled to leave Apple in 2017, was fired by Apple a month before he was expected to leave after sending a departure email out.[14][15] Chaudhri went on to form his own technology company, Humane, along with his wife, Bethany Bongiorno, who he met while both were working on the iPad.[16][3]
