iOS 7 hits iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S on September 18

Apple have announced that the iOS 7 mobile operating system update will be landing on September 18 2013, hitting the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S as well as the latest handsets set to be revealed tonight.

First announced back in June, iOS 7 is a major re-working for the operating system, visually looking cleaner and more “flat”, in line with the new software head Jony Ive’s design ethos.

Features include redesigned native apps and icons, tile-based multi-tasking, iTunes radio and AirDrop for local file sharing over Wi-Fi.

New additions revealed today include a new male voice for Siri in the US and other select territories, as well as remixed ringtones alongside brand new tones.
