The iOS 6 release date is set to drop and Apple device users are eager to receive the new upgrade. The release is set to drop sometime on Wednesday, and the company has made a page on its site giving information on everything related to the iOS 6.

The information explains which devices the iOS 6 will be compatible with, as well as describing some of the major features it will bring.

It has been reported that the website will signal the time the iOS 6 will be released tomorrow. A posting can be expected, although at the moment it could be anytime from early morning to late evening.

It is believed that millions will look to download the new software within the first few days of the software becoming available, and that devices such as the iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch will all have their users bombarding Apple’s servers for the download.

It is believed that the iOS 6 will remove Google Maps and YouTube, but at the same time offer major upgrades to Siri. The voice-activated personal assistant will reportedly be able to update and launch apps, as well as update users’ Facebook statuses by voice.

Many users are excited about the new Facebook integration, which will provide a much more streamlined experience for lovers of social media.

It has also been reported that FaceTime will be available through 3G on the iOS 6, and iCloud Tabs will integrate Safari across all iCloud-connected devices. That will allow users to switch between devices but continue their work from the browser on their previously used device. The feature has been available on Google Chrome for a while but will be the first time Safari will allow its users to do so.

For those who have ordered the iPhone 5, the iOS 6 will come pre-installed. The iOS 6 will also be available on the Phone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPad 2, and the new iPad.
