Apple Released iOS 15 For All Users
It is no secret that Apple fans from all over the world are eagerly anticipating to download and install each new iOS version as soon as Apple servers start seeding the new software update for their iPhones. Apple, traditionally, introduces new features alongside each new major version of iOS, which freshens up both newer and older devices that are compatible with the latest software version.
The wait is finally over as Apple released iOS 15 together with iPadOS 15 and watchOS 8.
Compatibility
All iPhones that were compatible with the iOS 14 are also compatible with iOS 15. Hence, if you own an iPhone 6s or later device you can enjoy most if not all of the new iOS 15 features and design tweaks.
Here’s the full list of compatible devices:
