The updated operating system, iOS6, has many new features

Apple decided to ditch its competitor Google in favour for its own mapping system. 

Its own navigation service provides voice-guided, turn-by-turn directions, which will be a great aid when driving.

Additionally, it has fantastic 3D maps, with a fly-by feature so you can see over the top of buildings, surely one step above Google’s Street View.

Users will now be able to ask Siri, navigation questions, however we will have to wait if this feature reaches British soil.
