General How do you think about the iOS 10?

Apple Maps

With iOS 10, Apple Maps is getting ever closer to becoming a credible Google Maps alternative. Aside from a tweaked UI (larger buttons, cleaner typeface), it can now scan your calendar and recognise your routine automatically (think how Google Now integrates with Google Maps).

Apple Music

After a somewhat mixed launch, iOS 10 sees Apple give Music a facelift. There’s a new Search tab, support to display lyrics and a cleaner UI throughout the The Library, For You, Browse and Radio tabs. It probably won’t convert Spotify diehards, but it’s progress.

Home

Apple added a standalone “Home” app in iOS 10, designed to control all of a user’s HomeKit-connected products in one central spot. Home, available on the iPhone and iPad, offers quick access to favorite HomeKit scenes and accessories, plus a list of all rooms to make it simple to control several accessories at once.

Smarter Siri

Apple is finally opening up Siri to developers with iOS 10. This means users will be able to use voice controls to make VoIP calls, send messages with third party apps like WhatsApp or even hail cabs (Apple demoed this with Uber). Depending on developers’ imagination, the sky’s the limit here – though again it is another Android catch-up feature.

It looks great, like something similar to W7>W10 kind of thing. But it doesn't matter to me even if they add or improve tons of things in iPhone, lol. I don't even use Siri, and all the quick search etc are turned off (battery saving + don't use them...yet). Maps? I will reconsider when they actually made them usable offline just like Sygic. In truth, Sygic has always been my go-to direction app on all my devices.
