The Swiss Federal Railway has claimed that the new clock icon within iOS 6 on the iPad (below left) violates the railway's clock trademark (below right).
This comes at a time when Apple is facing flak globally for a number of geographical errors and missing information. Apple Maps has replaced Google Maps, which is no longer available on iOS 6. A lot of users who downloaded the iOS 6, also took social media forums to vent their frustration.
The Swiss Federal Railway (SBB) said the clock design used by Apple is owned by the SSB and the Cupertino-based Apple has not the permission to use it.
As per reports, the SBB is looking for an “amicable agreement” with Apple to let the iPhone 5 maker use it in return for a particular amount of license fee.
Apple’s iOS 6 is out and is now running on lots of devices. It would be interesting to watch how Apple responds to this issue.
