With the advent of iOS 17 in September the list of supported iOS versions will likely change again. We don’t imagine that Apple will be issuing any further iOS 12 updates though. This extended the list of supported handsets to include the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus and the iPhone 5S, handsets that arrived in 2014, and a few iPads that can’t be upgraded to iPadOS. If support ended at iOS 15 though that would leave a number of iPhones unsupported, so Apple has been known to issue security updates for iOS 12–one arrived as recently as January 2023. Because iPhones that could run iOS 13 and iOS 14 can run iOS 15, those versions of iOS are considered obsolete by Apple and aren’t updated. Apple currently supports the last two generations of the iPhone operating system: iOS 16 or 15. It should be noted that Apple has stopped supporting a lot of the older versions of iOS now, meaning there are no new security patches for them. We’ve not listed the smaller ‘point’ releases, as they change all the time, so take it as understood that any version of iOS that the iPhone is shown as supporting (such as iOS 16) also means any smaller point updates too (such as iOS 16.4.1). To show you which version of iOS your iPhone can run, we’ve broken down each iPhone generation so you know which version it originally shipped with (as that will be the earliest it can run) and the latest iteration it currently supports–including whether that iPhone will support iOS 17.
