Apple founder and ex-CEO Steve Jobs died at the age of 56, Apple said on its website on Thursday.
The cause of death was not disclosed, but Jobs struggled with cancer since 2003. He underwent a successful surgery in 2004 and a liver transplantation in 2008.
“Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being,” the company said. “Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.”
Jobs is credited with being the mastermind of the company’s iconic products – iPhone and iPad.
This August, the legendary chief executive officer of Apple Inc., resigned and named Cook to the post.
