 Apple has made a number of updates and new launchings in past few days, and there is yet another week at WWDC. iOS 6 is recently launched and many people are seeing it as a co-ordination with iPhone 5. The new operating system is adorned with a good amount of unique features and acquired some reputation even before its launching. Here, we are going to talk about the main features entailed in iOS 6. Leave apart the 3D Maps; the iOS is just looking like the upgraded version of Android 4. All the features the developers claim to add are already found in other platforms like Cydia and Android. In fact, most of them were already used in iOS 5, consequently, there is no exciting thing and hence it’s doubtful the update will be able to win too many hearts. The upgraded version of Siri which is used in this operating system to take sport related queries and local searching has already been utilized in almost the same way in Cydia tweaks. The app was named as SiriSports Tweak in Cydia. Not just this one, but many other features are just a replica of previously launched features. For instance, 3D maps which is just an updated version of Google map is already entailed in Android devices quite a long time ago.  And the setback is, Siri used in this operating system is not supportive to most of iPad because it’s supportive to only third generation iPads. The jailbreak community in fact is making some efforts for making it supportive for these devices. For this, the community has launched a new feature called Spire which brings Siri to the iPad. Developers are trying their best to grab the attention of their targeted audience by splitting the features into various categories like phone app, Social media integration, upgrading to the FaceTime app, Siri, 3D maps and photo apps. Considering all these features, somewhere we may consider it’s a good step from Apple. The bottom line is, undoubtedly there are quite a few apps which are actually can be considered as new invention in smart phone industry. But Apple could make some better efforts. Not to forget, iOS 6 will not be available for the original iPad but it will be working on iPhone 3GS as well as the iPad 2 and third generation iPad. Even before its launching, the developers were aware of the fact it has to face the competition of the market giant Android which has already surpassed iPhone in sales.
