According to a report on The Washington Post, there will be no pre-installed YouTube app in the next version of the operating system, which has also been confirmed by the Verge.
Apple reportedly said that its license from YouTube to include the app in iOS has expired, though users can watch YouTube through the Web browser. YouTube will be developing its own app for devices running iOS 6, the company reportedly said, while another report said the current YouTube app will be available on all devices running iOS 5.
It may be noted that Apple has already introduced its own maps programme for its next operating system, taking over for Google Maps.
Besides, Apple is also expected to release its new mobile operating system, iOS 6, possibly alongside a new iPhone and a mini-iPad.
All these facts are very much part of the ongoing rumour as the launch date of iPhone 5 is inching closer i.e, Sept 12.
Earlier the rumours were that the new device would be launched in the first week of August, 2012, but the latest information about Apple's next iteration came through Verizon CFO Fran Shammo, who hinted at its release in the fourth quarter.
Besides, it is also expected to be thinner than ever through confirmed use of in-cell display technology.
Other new features include adding LTE 4G cellular service, a higher-resolution camera on the front and back of the iPhone and a quad-core A6 processor.
The Apple is coming out with its new device in the wake of gruelling competition and the recent launches like Samsung Galaxy Note, Samsung Galaxy S III, Motorola Droid Razr and Razr Maxx.
