Apple's logo, designed in 1997 by Rob Janoff, features a bitten apple to distinguish it from other fruits and to convey simplicity. The bite wasn't a reference to computer bytes but a coincidental detail. Steve Jobs approved it, highlighting its simplicity. The logo's six stripes symbolize the ability to display color images. Despite a persistent myth, the bite wasn't related to computer terminology. The logo became iconic due to its distinctiveness and simplicity.
