The iOS 7 distribution date comes two days ahead of the iPhone 5C and iPhone 5S release date.
"iOS 7 is completely redesigned with an entirely new user interface and over 200 new features, so it's like getting a brand new device, but one that will still be instantly familiar to our users," said Apple's Senior Vice President of Software Engineering Craig Federigh in a statement. "Next month we'll be shipping our 700 millionth iOS device, and we're excited about what our hundreds of thousands of iOS developers are doing to bring great new features to their apps."
The iOS 7 will feature improvements to the Control Center, Notification Center, AirDrop, Photos, Safari, Siri, and the introduction of iTunes Radio.
iOS 7, as it has been featured in the beta versions, will come with a male voice for Siri.
According to Apple, iOS 7 has been engineered to utilize the 64-bit technologies built in the iPhone 5s smartphone.
With iOS 7 and the incoming iPhone 5s, the new fingerprint sensor will come into play with the Touch ID system.
The iOS 7 will be available, for free, for the iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5C, iPhone 5S, iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad mini, and the fifth generation of the iPod touch.
The iOS 7 launch will only be for the English, French, and German language. Additional languages will roll out over time.
