Apple is known for placing its fair share of Easter eggs into iOS and OS X, but this is the coolest one we’ve seen in a while.

You know the new Voice Memos icon Apple introduced in iOS 7 Beta 2? It turns out the icon is designed after the waveform representation of someone saying “Apple.”

The discovery was made by Twitter’s Mike Rundle, creator of the photography app Filters for iPhone:

Try it yourself. It’s true. And no one noticed it for almost two years. Makes you wonder what other Apple Easter eggs could still be waiting to be discovered, doesn’t it? Do you think any are buried in the Apple Watch?
