The new iOS 6 was announced last month at the WWDC event and Apple are going through the usual number of betas. If you have a developers account you can now download iOS 6 Beta 3 and see what bugs have been fixed and changes implemented.
The third beta version of iOS 6 bring with it the usual array of bug fixes and stability issues found in the second beta and testing of course will be taking place by all developers to see whether anything else has cropped up in this round.
The new Apple Maps app seems to be the only big new feature of iOS 6 and some developers are being quite critical of the seemingly lackluster upgrades. Many of the developers that have tested iOS 6 and played around with it are somewhat disappointed by how similar it is to iOS 5 which launched in October 2011.
There is nothing wrong with iOS 5 so a lot of people are wondering why there is such a need for a significant overhaul. There are so many great tweaks offered by the jailbreak communiity and iOS has become something of a bore for many to look at. Functionality should always be the first priority and iOS has been the smoothest mobile OS since it first arrived but we do feel that iOS needs some upgrades. This of course is our personal opinion.
As always with pre-release betas you do have to have a developers account to gain access to the new iOS system. It costs $99 to sign up as a developer on the iOS Dev Center and if you are interested in the construction of iOS then this really is a worthwhile investment.
