JAKARTA - Apple's chief design for the iPhone and smartwatch, Tang Tan, will leave the company in February 2024. This was reported by Bloomberg News on Friday, December 8, citing sources familiar with the matter.

This is the departure of a second iPhone executive after Bloomberg News reported on December 6 that Steve Hotelling, who oversees iPhone and touch ID screen technology that changes the way the iPhone is felt and functioning, will also leave the company.

Tan's return, who serves as vice president of product design at Apple, will be accompanied by a number of enhanced roles for several deputies, the report added.

Apple did not immediately respond to media requests for comment.

Richard Dinh, head of iPhone product design, will report directly to John Ternus, who serves as senior vice president of hardware engineering, according to the report.

Bloomberg also reports that Kate Bergeron, a hardware engineering executive in charge of the Mac team, will take over the design of Apple Watch.
