Is ios 15 no longer supported? I see that apple did not do a 15.8.1 when they released the other updates this week. So is it dead?
Source?iOS 15 is still supported, Apple supports the 3 most current releases along with MacOS. It's also the final version for several devices so will likely be supported for several years as is iOS 12.
Not every iOS version receives a monthly update depending on the vulnerabilities identified. iOS 12 tends to receive a yearly update now that it is 5 years old.
People vastly overestimate the impact of being on an outdated iOS version. The vast majority of popular apps support iOS 12, because even if you can’t install their latest versions, they work flawlessly.iOS 12 went nearly a year without an update. We will have to see if there's another update in the next few weeks to know "for sure". Of course Apple's support policy is unpublished and ambiguous to say the least.
I have found many apps in the App Store that still support iOS 12. There are plenty of iPhone 5S, iPhone 6/6 Plus, iPad Air, iPad Mini 2, iPad Mini 3, and iPod Touch (6th generation) still out in the wild.
I know A LOT of people who gave their old iPhones and iPads to their young kids for YouTube. And Roblox only requires iOS 11.

I don't mean to be rude or anything like that, but there are a lot of apps on Google Play Store that require Android 4 and it hasn't been supported for ages.iOS 12 went nearly a year without an update.

For devices that are on iOS 12 but support newer versions this has no impact though, I have my iPhone Xʀ and my 9.7-inch iPad Pro on iOS 12 and I can’t install these new updates to iOS 12 even if Apple were to release them; however, app compatibility is far more relevant.I don't mean to be rude or anything like that, but there are a lot of apps on Google Play Store that require Android 4 and it hasn't been supported for ages.
As far as I remember, many apps supported iOS 9 too, but the OS itself didn't get any updates either. The fact that apps are being supported on iOS 12 doesn't mean that the OS itself is receiving any updates anymore.
I asked the same question awhile ago and I'm surprised that iOS 12 was supported for longer than iOS 15. We can only make assumptions, but I am certain that iOS 12 won't receive any updates.
The release candidate has just been released. The public release should be out any day now.Is ios 15 no longer supported? I see that apple did not do a 15.8.1 when they released the other updates this week. So is it dead?
iOS 15 will most likely receive its final update this fall shortly after iOS 18 is released. This would be consistent with iOS 13 and iOS 14. Apple "usually" only supports the current version (N) plus the previous two versions (N - 2)With no update on Monday I am re bringing this up. Is it now dead?
Yes but 13 and 14 supported the same devices this is different as 15 is the end of line of some models.
