Great read. Interesting thought about how and if you should consider Material Design when designing something for iOS.
Use it, but don’t abuse it.

For all you huge Apple fan-boys out there…… 😉
Really good article about some of the “design” and “creative” issues people have with iOS. It’s something I’ve agreed with but never really saw it explained like this article does. It’s a great read. Highly recommended.
What’s skeuomorphism? If you’ve ever used an Apple product, you’ve experienced digital skeuomorphic design: calendars with faux leather-stitching, bookshelves with wood veneers, fake glass and paper and brushed chrome. Skeuomorphism is a catch-all term for when objects retain ornamental elements of past, derivative iterations–elements that are no longer necessary to the current objects’ functions.
I think Windows 8 and Android ICS are both great examples of how to move away from this design metaphor.
