iOS 8 release date, features, apps, news and rumours

We might only have just been treated to iOS 7.1, but Apple’s mobile operating system is due for another overhaul, with an iOS 8 release date predicted to follow the software’s widely expected WWDC 2014 unveiling.Although iOS 8 will be a more incremental update than last year’s iOS 7 refresh – the biggest overhaul since the mobile operating system was introduced – the patch looks set to bring a range of high profile improvements, with health and fitness expected to be a core theme of the software. Compatible with a range of Apple’s portable products, including the iPhone 5S, the more colourful iPhone 5C, the iPad Air and iPad Mini Retina, an iOS 8 update will likely precede a new range of hardware.
