      iOS 6地图：

·苹果已经放弃使用谷歌地图，转而使用自主开发的地图服务。

·苹果地图中标注的本地商户超过1亿家。

·与Siri一样，该应用整合了Yelp。

·苹果开发出路况服务，能够显示特定地区的突发事故和整体路况信息。

·路况功能能够使用来自iOS用户提供的信息，即时提供最新路况信息。

·导航功能正处于开发之中。

·汇集的路况信息将会让苹果地图应用提供即时估计到达时间。

·地图能够在关闭屏幕下继续运行，能够与Siri完美的配合。

·Siri能够找到特定街道名称。

     整合Facebook：

·Facebook已经被整合到iOS 6操作系统当中。

·通过设置只需登录一次，所有的一切都将建立起来。

·用户可共享照片、地图、iTunes链接和游戏中心内容。

·Facebook Events将被自动加入Calendar当中。

·生日也被加入其中。

·电话号码将出现在联系人名单中。

一些想法：苹果和Facebook一直有着很好的关系。因为苹果首席执行官蒂姆·库克（Tim Cook）在今年D10大会中提到“持续关注”的问题，我们期待着两家公司有着更加密切的合作。

    考虑到iOS 5中整合Twitter让后者受益匪浅，Facebook与苹果的合作当然也会获益颇丰。此外，因为用户将慢慢按照应用和操作系统进行划分，Facebook不需要在其Facebook应用中投入大量的时间、资源和力量。 

    Passbook：

·收集用户所有的身份票据，如登机牌、门票和优惠券等。

·能够与其它应用协同工作，如星巴克的应用或各种购买电影票的应用。

    ·合作品牌包括了星巴克、Fandango、美联航、美国铁路公司、苹果零售店等。 

新Phone应用：

·该应用可设置提醒，拨打用户此前不想接听的电话号码。

·用户可选择发送短信，而不是接听电话。

·“越界报警”功能（geo-fence），将提醒用户在离开特定区域时，向某人拨打电话。

·请勿打扰功能：允许用户一次性关闭所有闹钟和提醒。

·在请勿打扰模式下，用户可指派特定的联系人。

·在紧急情况下，用户可连续拨打两通电话。

无线版FaceTime：

·FaceTime此前只能够在Wifi接入中使用，但是iOS 6让其能够在无线状态下使用。

·,新版FaceTime还统一了电话号码和Apple ID。如果对方通过FaceTime呼叫你的电话号码，你可以通过Mac或者iPad来回应。

Safari/iCloud Tabs：

·iCloud Tabs只能收在Safari中使用。

·该功能不会一直同步浏览器标签。相反，它能够在所有的iDevices中同步标签列表。

·该功能只能够在OS X Mountain Lion和iOS 6操作系统中使用。

·Safari将增加离线阅读列表。

·用户能够直接从Safari下载图片。

    ·Smart App Banners将能够让用户在应用商店App Store中了解到母语应用。 

图片流：

·共享图片流：“选择你喜欢分享的图片，选择你希望与之共同分享的用户。”

·内置评论功能。

·可在Mac、Apple TV和通过网络使用。

Mail VIPs：

·该功能本质上是向用户提供标记经常联系或“非常重要”的电子邮件联系人。

·用户可在创作区域插入照片或视频。

·Mail VIPs将与iCloud捆绑在一起，这意味着所有的“重要人物”联系方式将被同步到所有设备当中。

    ·用户将拥有两个额外的收件箱：重要人物收件箱和已标记收件箱。 

支持：

·iPhone 4S、iPhone 4和iPhone 3GS将支持iOS 6。

·iPad、iPad 2和全新iPad将支持iOS 6。

·第四代iPod Touch将支持iOS 6。

   ·iOS 6将于今年秋季正式发布。
