APPLE today said founder Steve Jobs has died, aged 56.
Industry watchers called him a master innovator - changing the worlds of computing, recorded music and communications, ABC News in the US reported.
He had taken three medical leaves of absence in the last seven years. The first came in 2004 when he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, a usually fatal form, but he managed to recover with treatment.
He also underwent a liver transplant in 2009, and earlier this year, he was granted another leave for an undisclosed illness.
After several years of failing health, Mr Jobs announced on August 24, 2011 that he was stepping down as Apple's chief executive.
Apple released a statement saying: "We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today."
"Steve’s brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve."
"His greatest love was for his wife, Laurene, and his family. Our hearts go out to them and to all who were touched by his extraordinary gifts."

Sad to see such a great guy go. I never knew him, but he made a massive influence on my life, and that which I am massively grateful for. RIP Steve.
