"By making computers personal and putting the internet in our pockets, he made the information revolution not only accessible, but intuitive and fun.

"The world has lost a visionary. And there may be no greater tribute to Steve's success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented."

Tim Cook, Apple chief executive

"Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being.
