Apple has finally released iOS 6 to the public, more than three months after the software was first previewed at WWDC. It brings more than 200 new features to the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, including Apple’s brand new Maps and Passbook apps, Facebook integration, FaceTime over cellular, enhancements to Siri, Mail, and Phone, and lots, lots more.
You can download iOS 6 from iTunes by plugging your iOS device into your computer and hitting the ‘Update’ button. Alternatively, you can also download it over-the-air directly on your iOS device — you’ll find this option within the Settings app.

- iPhone 3GS
- iPhone 4

- iPhone 5
- iPod touch (4th gen)
- iPod touch (5th gen)
- iPad 2
