Apple showed off its latest and updated operating system in the recently concluded WorldWide Developers' Conference with brand new and exciting features.

This is the first Apple WWDC event since CEO Tim Cook shuffled the leadership at the company and since iOS chief Scott Forstall left Apple.

The event was held in San Francisco, CA wherein Apple presented its new and improved iOS update, which gives the mobile operating system a superb design and some new features for iPhone and iPad fans such as quick-access system controls, automatic app updates, and Apple's AirDrop file-sharing system.

To the delight of many Apple fans, the new iOS comes with new fun features such as the music streaming feature dubbed as iTunes Radio. Apple's new iTunes Radio expands the pre-existing iTunes with familiar features that include radio stations you can build around a favorite artist, and featured stations. Apple seems to be gunning for Pandora, Spotify and Google Music. The iTunes Radio will be tied to your Apple ID, so you can use it wherever you have iTunes installed. It's free and will be ad-free for iTunes Match users.

Moreover, loyal Apple users will feel the change in their device brought about by the new look and design of the software's interface giving it a flat yet elegant design. However, many critics claimed that Apple removed the intricate designs and "skeuomorphic interface elements" on icons that give make each icons appear alive and bubbly. Apple promises a 3D effect that makes your wallpaper appear some distance behind the icons. The new interface also shows off circles that resemble the rays of sunlight giving off a relaxing and serene feel.

One of the few actually new features to come to iOS is the Control Center, which finally puts your most-used settings front and center, and available from any screen. Moreover, one very useful features of the new OS is that the App Store gets automatic app updates in the new OS.

Apple also knew that users love to take photos using their devices. Thus, the company improved its camera. The new camera app shows all your shooting modes so you can tap them to frame your shot such as still, panorama, video, and a square, Instagram-like configuration. Another button will let you apply filters to the still or square shots. Apple also drops the endless list of photos that you may or may not break out into albums. With iOS 7, Apple treats photos as moments in time organized around geotagged locations, not just chronology.

iOS 7 will be available to your iPhone and iPad this fall. As usual, registered iPhone developers get a crack at the new iOS 7 beta beginning today, but iPad developers will have to wait for a few weeks. Would you update to the new iOS 7?
