Some iOS 15 features like Spatial Audio, Live text, and more will only work on iPhone XS or newer iPhones
India Today
Even though Apple promised iOS 15 to old iPhones, the update might not appear in its entirety to all the models.
Apple announced a series of features for iOS users at its Worldwide Developers Conference that concluded last week. The features have started rolling out to users with the iOS 15 package. Though Apple had confirmed that the iOS 15 would support iPhone 6s and above, some features will be limited to the latest iPhones. Most of the devices that enjoy this exclusivity include iPhone XS or newer models. There are some functions that support iPhone 7 or later variants and don’t run on iPhone 6s and first-generation iPhone SE. These, however, are limited to Walking Steadiness and Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking through AirPods Pro and AirPods Max. While the health feature will run on iPhone 8 or newer, the latter will even work on iPhone 7 series. As pointed out by 9to5Mac, there is a whole list of abilities on the iOS 15 that require Apple’s A12 Bionic chip to work and hence are limited to the devices powered by them. These iPhone models include iPhone XR, iPhone XS, iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone SE (2nd gen), iPhone 12, and iPhone 12 Pro.More Related News
