imageWhat Features To Expect In iOS 6?

Typically, every major iOS release up till  now has focused on adding much demanded features lacking from the OS. Third party app support in the second major iteration, copy paste in the third, multitasking in the fourth, and (finally!) revamped notifications in the fifth (along with a slew of cloud based features).

So what will it be for iOS 6?

    One big, glaring omission from iOS would be actual homescreen widgets ala Android. That really is information at a glance. Notification center is not at a glance as long as we have to pull it down to see it. I never use it for that reason.

    I think one major thing that hasn been mentioned here is with apple's new mapping feature it should allow Siri users outside of the united states to access lookups and directions as well as finding you a local place to eat or calling you the nearest cab company etc. it's no surprise to me that you self centered Americans wrote this with only Americans in mind. I do appreciate your blogs and I don't mean to insult but keep the rest of the world in mind when your explaining how iOS updates effect the population of iPhone/iPad/iPod users

    Good point imo. Pathetically, Siri location services is still null outside America, 7 months after release.

    Have they upgraded the texting app to allow individual text tones for different people? And contact pics too? I'm still on iOS 4. Anyway, bieber they could make it more like Bite SMS the better. Would also like unlimited folder volume, unlimited dock and a moveable camera button.

    Live wallpapers like Android would be nice! Live Tiles like Windows would be good too UK business locate support for Siri The new predictive text suggestion feature for the BlackBerry10 software looks good, u just swype upwards to select the word that's being predicted - apple should create a version of that too

    Would be nice to see something like lock info and themes introduced. Things like byte SMS would also be great. Why should we have to unlock our phones just to send a message or make a call.

    True, but one thing I respect about the widgets being in Notification Center is that since weather (I removed stocks) relies on location services, the only time it triggers the location services is when you pull the NC down to look at weather in the first place. The problem I have with Android's widgets is it is always pulling that information to stay up-to-date. If that is the case, then you can expect battery life to be worse on Android than it is on the iPhone. For me, I feel that that IS the case, as with my 4S I'm getting plenty of usage throughout the day with more to spare for the next day if I couldn't charge right away. So, pulling down the notification center to glance at it vs. actually opening an app, or having a constant widget is preferred in those terms :/

    Agreed with the facebook integration and specifically talking about SBSettings it would be nice to turn wifi on as efficiently as you can with SBSettings, having it in the pull down notification center and then just hitting the wifi button instead of having to enter setting, wifi, on/off switch.

    but it could actually update only when ur in the home screen so when its locked or you are using the app it doesn't update wich will not ruin your battery life since u know you stay for about 2 secs on the homescreen

    Siri in spanish. Siri in iPad. Toggles in notification center. Mouse support (for iPad). iTunes library management including adding your mp3 files directly from the device (downloaded from email, web, cloud storage, etc), same reader function currently in safari for mail client, enhanced text prediction....
