The IOS operating system for iPhone, iPad, and iPod will be updated in the Fall. Some pretty cool features will be given to IOS device users, all for free! Here are some of the new features:
A redesigned Maps program that will include an overview picture, turn by turn navigation, traffic conditions, and a great Flyover view.
Updates to Siri. Apparently she has gone to school and now knows her sports, restaurants, and movies.
Passbook. A boarding pass app that lets you store boarding passes, movie tickets, retail coupons, loyalty cards, and more. I am really looking forward to this app.
FaceTime over Cellular. In the past, FaceTime was a feature that only worked while you were connected to a wireless connection. Now it will work from any connection.
Calling features. Decline an incoming call, reply with a text message, or set a callback reminder (so needed). Also a Do Not Disturb feature.
IOS 6 will be compatible with the iPhone 3GS, 4, and 4S. Also iPod Tough 4th Gen, and iPad 2 and the new iPad.
IOS 6 will be released “sometime in the fall”.
