Will they not release security patches to the last-supported iOS version though? I think they were doing that in the past.

- luch 4y agoYou're absolutely right, it's still supported security wise. You just don't get the new versions of iOS
- badpun 4y agoSo, the phone will basically continue working as-is, and will still be secure. The newer versions of iOS are a mixed bag anyway. The biggest problem in practice will be the apps eventually dropping support for the old iOS version. It won't happen overnight though.
- bondant 4y agoExactly. iOS 12 was released in 2018 and received its final security update last August. So if Apple does the same with iOS 15 we should get another 3 years of security update.
