We tested iOS 6 Beta: first impressions

We've had a chance to try the beta of iPhone OS 6, so we are going to leave some screenshots and impressions.
We must remember that for now is a beta, so it is not intended for everyday use, since there are still implemented features and bugs to fix.

We will post updated as we find new features or changes.

For starters, see the configuration screen of the phone, just like in IOS 5, but with the proviso that asks us if we want to use Siri.
Once on the screen, we noticed no changes, rather than the new icons and Passbook Maps.
The new icons Emoji are enabled by default, even seems that there are more than the tweak from Cydia.
Siri not have optimized text into Spanish at all. Things still appear in English.
Some applications have changed the design slightly, as the Phone keypad, the buttons at the bottom of the App Store, the application of Time or the interface of the camera.
~~In the new Maps application fail to see any building in 3D~~ . We found some in Cupertino. You may still not operating at all. If we can turn or tilt the camera up and down.
He made a well-needed Google Street View. When you publish your app Google maps in 3D, will have to see which is better ...
The Search Maps is showing us suggestions as we write.
In the search results, see the name of the result in the common pin, but also see the number of stars that give on Yelp.
When we use navigation, we can see from up close, either in the app itself or the lock screen. In addition, we can see a magnified view of the entire journey.
Maps can print directly from (can not remember if this option was in IOS 5).
The application passbook does not happen in the home screen.
In any keyboard button appears dictation.
Photo sharing options have changed in appearance, now appearing as an icon and not just text as before (Mail, Twitter, Facebook, Assign to Contact, Print, Copy, Save on reel or Wallpaper).
In the Settings menu you can add our Facebook account, as with Twitter.
We can also enable or disable Opcon "Do Not Disturb", but the options are on the Notifications menu.
From there you can select a time slot and choose which calls allow.
There is a new widget to the center of claims that we can publish on Twitter or Facebook directly.
Within each individual choice of notifications, there are more options depdendiendo of the application, such as sounds, alerts, or number of repetitions.
From the tab published in Facebook, we can add the location and select which group is directed towards our publication.
The App Store Spanish still has not changed, but if the American.
Now we can open the applications you have installed directly.
If we set up the Facebook account in the system, we do likes to applications that we like, appearing the link on our wall.
The positions of the accents and other punctuation in the Spanish keyboard have changed slightly.
There is a new menu Privacy Settings, where we see all the applications that make use of our information such as contacts, calendars, photos, etc..
Ability to add different signatures to e according to the account being used.
You can configure up to three predefined messages for when we're busy and can not pick up the phone.
The whole system is generally notice something coarse and closures applications.
