On April 23, Bloomberg reported that Apple CEO Tim Cook plans to step down in a few months and transition to the role of executive chairman of the board, with John Ternus, senior vice president of hardware engineering, taking over. Cook stated that the hasty launch of Apple Maps on the iPhone in 2012 was the first major mistake of his tenure, as the app had significant flaws that ultimately led to management adjustments. Additionally, Cook mentioned that he is in good health and plans to serve in the new role for an extended period.
