What will be new in iOS 6 in the coming year?

[Gopu Pa]

Many of us have been using the iphone’s and ipad’s since long. We all are familiar with the iOS 5. We have seen that there were many features in the iOS 5. There were imessage, reminders, newsstand, twitter, camera etc. I have heard that iOS 6 is also about to come in the next year. I would like to know that what features were missing from ios 5 which we could have in the iOS 6. Is it true that iOS 6 is coming next year? Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I would say that it would be better if the iOS 6 is easier and simpler to understand. According to me the imessage and icloud thing is quite confusing and it is quite difficult for the non techie person to understand. I have many friends who never actually update their phones because according to them there is no use of doing so; they have no idea about what new stuffs do.

Yes I have also heard that iOS 6 is coming next month and I supposedly believe that it would be better than the iOS 5.
• I suppose that there should be drag and drop wireless syncing with itunes.
• There should be an option of choosing the camera resolution to 480p, 720p and 1080p.
• I would like to see if the homescreen is improved. I think it is a must as the iOS still looks outdated and somewhat stale.
• I think there should be more factory applications pre-installed.
• Pages and Keynote should come free.

Well I think that there should be Bluetooth to all phones. It would be very good if there is advanced options for camera so that I do not require any applications to put effects. Imessage should be a separate app for iphone. It would be nice to see the ipod icon back in the iOS 6.

I definitely think that the iOS 6 would be better. I am eagerly waiting for the iOS 6 to come. I would like to have the following things features,
• clear all notification pop-ups on the lock screen without needing to unlock the phone
• clear all notification pop-ups in the Notification Center with one tap
• clear all notification badges with one tap
• access to some phone settings (e.g., Bluetooth, brightness, WiFi, etc.) in the Notification Center
• neon-glowing status bar to indicate new notifications
• in Messages app in the conversation view, swipe left/right to go to the next conversation thread
• flick with one finger from the very bottom to trigger multitasking bar

There should the following features in iOS 6,
• Lock screen widgets
• 3rd Party widgets
• Faster access to bluetooth/wifi/airplane
• Live Icons
• Change default browser

I would be very happy if we get more memory and Lock screen widgets. It would appreciate if the iOS is simplified in iOS 6. There are many people who haven’t yet experienced the whole features of the iOS 5.

According to me the iOS 6 should have the following features which I suppose,
• Ability to sort reminders by due date
• Ability to 'snooze' a reminder from the lock screen
• Ability to display next X calendar items
• Ability to make any song an alarm tone.

I want to have the following improvements in the iOS 6, and they are as follows

• There should be the ability to see only unread emails
• Also there should be the Ability to disable or enable: wifi, Bluetooth, brightness
• Ability to watch full quality videos on youtube
• Multiple email signatures

[JoanaJhon]

There should be basic GPS application in iOS 6. There also should be the ability to set simple profiles e.g turn off BT, change default email etc with one setting. There should be some easy way to attach photos to the email. Currently I think the edge trick sucks which is there in the iOS 5. 3d camera would really do.

It would be very nice if we could get these changes and additions. I have mentioned the things that we could see in iOS 6.
• Siri 2.0: interaction with third-party apps, Settings app, etc.
• hide/unhide native apps
• password-protect any native app
• leave cells empty on Springboard as needed
• live app icons (besides the native Calendar app)
• new wallpapers
• copy/paste lyrics in Music app
