By the way: iPhone 4 supports iOS 7.1.2, released 4 years after the iPhone 4.
- Wowfunhappy 7y agoI'm not sure why the GP said his iPhone 4 won't upgrade past iOS 5, but it's worth noting: while an iPhone 4 can be upgraded to iOS 7, actually doing so is a bad idea unless you want your phone to run slow as molasses. You'll be much better off on iOS 6 or 5. (I suppose there may be a security argument for upgrading as far as possible, but it's not like iOS 7 is up-to-date either. If you're concerned about security, you shouldn't be using an iPhone 4.)
- rarestblog 7y agoCorrect. It won't upgrade past 7.1.2 not 5. My mistake.
- alkonaut 7y ago> You'll be much better off on iOS 6 or 5. Sure. But if you are making an app for say a government service that has as a requirement to reach 98% of mobile users, and you reach the goal if you count compatible devices (not people who choise not to upgrade) then it helps.
- rarestblog 7y agoCorrect, sorry, didn't bother to look at the time. It is 7.1.2. The point still stands, it's old and I'm probably in 0.1% that the article left out in iOS markets.
- Karellen 7y agoWouldn't it be better to say that iOS 7.1.2 supports the iPhone 4?
