📱 Jony Ive, the designer behind the original iPhone, is sounding the alarm on the danger of touchscreens in modern cars.

He argues that while the iPhone used a screen to solve the problem of needing a versatile interface for apps, car screens actually create a dangerous new problem.

Because a flat screen lacks tactile feedback, it forces drivers to take their eyes off the road just to adjust basic settings.

Ive believes this move toward digital dashboards is “easy and lazy” design that prioritizes fashion over safety.

His creative firm LoveFrom is now working with Ferrari to bring back high-quality physical switchgear that drivers can operate by feel alone.

This shift marks a major turning point where tactile buttons are being rebranded as a premium safety feature rather than an outdated technology.

As more car companies ditch knobs for menus, it is clear that the man who popularized the touchscreen thinks we have gone too far.

Is it time for the car industry to follow Jony Ive’s lead and bring back physical buttons for good?

What are your thoughts? 🤔💭
