(You'll have the ability to opt out of this new feature, should you feel so inclined.) In a nod to Mac users, the cloud storage service is also adding automatic iPhoto imports.

Apple updates nearly every app for iOS 6, sneaks in key GarageBand, iPhoto and Podcasts updates

Apple Podcasts app hands-on

If you didn't already know that iOS 6 was out in the wild, Apple just delivered a torrent of mobile app updates to make it perfectly clear.

We're including direct links to a few of the juicier updates, but we'd recommend checking AppleInsider's comprehensive list to see everything that you're missing.
