Apple will reportedly bring system wide Facebook integration to iOS 6, according to a 9to5Mac report. This report follows a similar one from TechCrunch.

According to sources familiar with the Facebook integration into iOS 6, the integration will be very similar to Twitter's integration that launched with iOS 5. The integration's biggest presence will be in the iOS Photos application. Like you are able to send photos to Twitter from the Photos application, you will be able to post photos to Facebook. A single sign-on section for all Facebook connected applications is present in the iOS 6 system settings application. Like with Twitter, a new "social sheet," as some people familiar with the matter call it, will appear for an accompanying status message.

The site is also saying that Apple plans to add a like button to app detail pages in the App Store which would post to your Facebook wall.

Apple is expected to unveil iOS 6 at WWDC 2012.
