Bringing an application from the desktop to a touch device, or vice versa, is never simple. You must reconsider every last interaction from scratch. But the underlying data, and the user's mental model, need to remain the same. Learn how the team at Omni Group brought our full-featured Mac productivity apps to iPhone and iPad, and made them feel like they were meant to be there all along. And even better, hear about the lessons we learned on iOS and that we are now bringing back to the desktop.



Conference attendees said about this session:



This was really inspiring material. Bill showed a humanistic view which can often get missed and he is an excellent speaker.
Excellent all around. The philosophical stuff was not only interesting but easily transferred back to practicality. I can see why Bill is consistently highly rated.

Bill is User Experience Lead at the Omni Group, one of the world's most accomplished and affable Mac and iOS developers. His is the nebulous job of making software civilized enough to bring out in public. This involves lots of squinting six inches away from the Cinema Display at 3200% zoom and consulting etymology dictionaries to properly label buttons. It often ends up entwined with documentation, marketing, quality assurance, customer support, and Dungeon Mastering too. Before Seattle, he lived near Chicago, where he wrote odd code for companies on the Board of Trade, and in Green Bay, where he operated nocturnally for a year. He also spends a prodigious amount of time in Tokyo, and has learned exotic foreign languages such as Dvorak, Python, and New Standard Tuning. When not shoveling pixels or graphemes, Bill likes creating video games, translating video games, and, occasionally, playing video games.
