Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2012 has started moments ago and one of the things Apple has announced that most people are looking forward to is iOS 6.
Here are just some of the things you can expect to receive on the next update:
Siri Enhancements
• You can ask Siri the score of a game (e.g. NBA, NFL) and she’ll be glad to give you an answer. I doubt Siri is going to cover PBA.
• Can provide player stats.
• Can provide restaurant info through OpenTable and Yelp.
• Movie info through Rotten Tomatoes
• Siri can launch apps.
• Car integration
• Will be available to the iPad
Facebook Integration
• Easier posting of statuses, photos, locations, Safari websites, etc, on Facebook. All accessible from the Notifications Center
• Events and birthdays will automatically show in the Calendar.
Enhanced Phone App
• Lets you reply to a missed call with a text message or just remind yourself to call back.
Do Not Disturb
• Stops the phone from bothering you with push notifications or text messages during a set time period. In other words, it prevents people from annoying you during your quiet times without putting your phone in Airplane mode.
FaceTime over Cellular Data
• You can now use FaceTime over cellular networks and not just WiFi.
Passbook
• A mobile digital wallet of your tickets, coupons, gift cards, etc.
All new Maps
• Local business search built into maps
• Yelp integration
• Anonymous, real-time traffic info from iOS users
• Turn by turn navigation
• Siri integration
• 3D mapping
• Doesn’t have anything similar to Google’s StreetView but has the Flyover (aerial view).
Will support iPhone 3GS and later, 2nd and 3rd Gen iPad (No support for the 1st Gen iPad) iOS 6 will be released in the later part of this year.
@Papapau:
Thanks for that detailed reply! :)
Anyway, there are rumors na regarding Motorola Droid Fighter/Motorola Droid Razr HD.
Sabi nila, it combines the super thin body of the Razr and the battery of the Maxx.
Now, that’s a killer phone!
