iOS 6 – will release this fall, A recent
update on apple website iOS 6 is releasing shortly with more new features and
it is available to your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. There is also news around
that Steve Jobs was working on this coolest iOS 6 during his last days at work.
Let us take a preview of the features of iOS 6 and its best from apple.
Maps - Designed by Apple from the ground up, Apple says maps gives you turn-by-turn spoken directions, interactive 3D views, and the stunning Flyover feature.1 All of which may just make this app the most beautiful, powerful mapping service ever.
With iOS 6, Siri understands more
languages, works in more countries, and is available on the new iPad.2 So you
can get more things done in more places around the world. Want to know the
latest scores and stats for your favorite teams and players? Thanks to iOS 6,
Siri knows the answers. Or maybe it’s movie night. Siri can show you the latest
reviews and showtimes. Find the best restaurants in town and make reservations.
Even open your apps for you — no tapping required. Say "Launch Flight
Tracker" or "Open Where’s My Water" and Siri does just that. You
can even use Siri to post Facebook updates and tweet for you, too.
Facebook - Now it’s easier than ever to
interact with the world’s largest social network. And there’s no need to leave
your app to do it. Share a photo to Facebook right from Camera or Photos. Post
your location right from Maps. Brag about a high score right from Game Center.
If you have your hands full, just ask Siri to post for you. You need to sign in
to Facebook only once, and you’ll be off and sharing. Never miss another
birthday or get-together, since Facebook events are integrated into Calendar.
And your Facebook friends’ profile information is integrated into Contacts, so
when they update an email address or phone number you automatically stay up to
date. Now that’s something to post about.
Shared photo stream - Now you can share
just the photos you want, with just the people you choose. Simply select photos
from the Photos app, tap the Share button, choose who you want to share your
photos with, and they’re on their way. Friends using iCloud on an iOS 6 device
or a Mac running Mountain Lion get the photos delivered immediately in the
Photos app or iPhoto.3 You can even view shared photo streams on Apple TV. If
the folks you're sharing with aren’t using an Apple device, they can view your
photos on the web. People can like individual photos and make comments. And you
can share as much as you want: Your shared photo streams don’t count against
your iCloud storage, and they work over Wi-Fi and cellular networks.
Passbook - Your boarding passes, movie
tickets, retail coupons, loyalty cards, and more are now all in one place. With
Passbook, you can scan your iPhone or iPod touch to check in for a flight, get
into a movie, and redeem a coupon. You can also see when your coupons expire,
where your concert seats are, and the balance left on that all-important coffee
bar card. Wake your iPhone or iPod touch, and passes appear on your Lock screen
at the appropriate time and place — like when you reach the airport or walk
into the store to redeem your gift card or coupon. And if your gate changes
after you’ve checked in for your flight, Passbook will even alert you to make
sure you’re not relaxing in the wrong terminal.
FaceTime - Now works over cellular networks
as well as Wi-Fi, so you can make and receive FaceTime calls wherever you
happen to be.4 You can even make and receive FaceTime calls on your iPad using
your phone number. That means you can use FaceTime wherever you are, on any
device. And never miss another wink, smile, air kiss, or eye roll.
iOS 6 adds new calling features to your
iPhone. Now when you decline an incoming call, you can instantly reply with a
text message or set a callback reminder. And when things are just too hectic,
turn on Do Not Disturb and you won’t be bothered by anyone — except can’t-miss
contacts like your boss or your better half.
Redesigned with a more streamlined
interface for easier reading and writing, Mail in iOS 6 lets you set up a VIP
list so you’ll never miss an important message from your accountant, your boss,
or your BFF.5 It’s even easier to add photos and videos to email messages. And
to refresh your mailboxes, all you have to do is swipe down.
Safari - iOS 6 brings even better web
browsing to your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. iCloud Tabs keeps track of which
pages you have open on your devices, so you can start browsing on one device
and pick up right where you left off on whatever device is handy. Safari now
saves web pages — not just links — in your Reading List, so you can catch up on
your reading even when you can’t connect to the Internet.6 And when you’re
posting a photo or video to eBay, Craigslist, or another site, you can take
photos and video — or choose from your Camera Roll — without leaving Safari.
When you really want to see the whole picture, turn your iPhone or iPod touch
to landscape and tap the full-screen icon to view web pages without
distractions.
iOS 6 comes with even more features to make
it easier for people with vision, hearing, learning, and mobility disabilities
to get the most from their iOS devices. Guided Access helps students with
disabilities such as autism remain on task and focused on content. It allows a
parent, teacher, or administrator to limit an iOS device to one app by
disabling the Home button, as well as restrict touch input on certain areas of
the screen. VoiceOver, the revolutionary screen reader for blind and low-vision
users, is now integrated with Maps, AssistiveTouch, and Zoom. And Apple is
working with top manufacturers to introduce Made for iPhone hearing aids that
will deliver a power-efficient, high-quality digital audio experience.
