Apple design boss Jony Ive says his new job lets him work on 'naughty, under-the-radar' activities
As part of that switch, he handed off all his managerial duties to two other execs, while still overseeing the product design team overall.
But he also got official clearance to do things that he was already sort of doing: Helping with the design of the company's retail stores and spaceship campus.
Ive also spoke about the new Steve Jobs film, which he accused of hijacking Jobs' image. Although he hasn't seen the film himself, he says that friends have told him that they don't recognize the man the film portrays.

Here's the video of him speaking:
