Only three days after the launch iOS 6.1.2, Apple launched 6.1.3 iOS beta for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. More soon. I told you this morning that iOS 6.1.3 will arrive in iTunes in the near future, since Apple has to solve some important bugs of its operating system, and here is that a first beta version of the new iOS is already available for iOS application developers. The new version of the operating system fix the bug that allows removing the iOS passcode and re-implements the iOS 6 Maps changes available exclusively for Japan:
