The recently concluded WWDC 2012 from Apple featured one of the highlights of the event which is the unveiling of Apple's iOS 6, the latest processor for Apple products.

Scott Forstall, the chief for Apple's iOS was the one who took the stage and announced to developers that Apple has already shifted 365 million iOS devices up until the later part of March. Aside from that, Forstall also had the honor of introducing its latest iOS version called iOS 6. Through this latest version, Apple users can now maximize the benefits of their Apple devices.

Here are some of the highlights of iOS 6 for Apple users:

Siri in iPad

There are many rumors before regarding Siri's presence in other Apple devices after becoming a hit with Apple's iPhone 4S. As it turns out, these rumors have basis since Siri, the popular virtual assistant would now be available for second-generation iPad model and above. This new OS would also bring about a much improved Siri especially in location awareness and updated information. There are also added options for the language that Siri can utilize ranging from Canadian French and English; Italian; Spanish (for Spain, Mexico, and the U.S.); Swiss Italian, French, and German; Mandarin (Taiwan), Cantonese (Hong Kong), and Mandarin and Cantonese (Mainland China).

Maps

Apple has developed its own mapping system which seems to compete with the popular Google Maps. According to Apple, this system was "'built from the ground up" thus having its own features and functions. Users can expect a much more improved "mapping feature" which would utilize turn-by-turn navigation, 3D "flyovers", updated traffic information and more.

Facebook Integration

Apple's iOS 6 now offers Facebook Integration for Apple users. This is similar to the Twitter integration that was done before. Instead of accessing a seperate application, users can save their details in their device and they could instantly access Facebook directly from their own device.

Do Not Disturb

Through iOS 6, there is a new option called "Do Not Disturb" and this will enable to keep Apple devices in silent mode as well as preventing the screen from lighting up at all times. This feature is helpful especially for people who do not want to be disturbed or interrupted during a specific time frame.

These are just some of the additional features that can be utilized through Apple's iOS 6. There are still a lot more possibilities for this new iOS version once it has been officially released in the market. The iOS 6 beta version has been made available to developers and the consumer release for iOS 6 is set to be in the coming Autumn.
