iOS 14 won’t get updates forever, Apple wants you to update to iOS 15

Although iOS 14 continued to receive security updates, Apple assures that this will not be the case forever.

Despite being one of the most comprehensive releases of the operating system, iOS 15 has had a much slower adoption rate than any other iOS release in history. Part of that could be because those in Cupertino promised users that iOS 14 would continue to maintain constant security updates. Now, however, Apple came out to clarify that these updates won’t last forever

Sure, when Apple decided to announce that iOS 14 would continue to receive security updates, the company made no mention that it would be a temporary measure. At the time, Apple’s words guaranteed the following: “You can update to the latest version of iOS 15 as soon as it’s released to get the latest features and the most comprehensive set of security updates. Or stick with iOS 14 and continue to receive important security updates until you’re ready to upgrade to the next major release

“.

Now, Apple left iOS 14 users no choice but to upgrade, since the release of the last security patch in October last year and since then the latest version of Apple’s mobile operating system has not seen any changes in its code. Of course, Apple is entitled to make this kind of move, and not just because all iOS 14 compatible devices are also compatible with iOS 15, but because iOS 14 is already a version of the past left unsupported. .

So far, only 72% of iPhone devices released in the past four years have downloaded iOS 15. The number is even lower for older versions, of course, but it is still quite improvable. Some reports claim that iPhone battery lasts longer in iOS 15 than in iOS 14, so that is another reason to upgrade to the latest version on your mobile.
