QUESTION
Which iPhones will lose IOS support in 2027?
By 2027, the iPhones most likely to lose official iOS support are the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max.
That does not mean they will suddenly stop working. They should still be able to make calls, send texts, browse the web, and use many installed apps for a while. The main change is that they may stop getting new iOS versions and future security updates.
One important caveat: even if the phone itself still works, some third-party apps may gradually stop supporting older iOS versions as developers require newer software. So 2027 would be a time to start thinking about upgrading if you want the best security and the fewest app-compatibility issues.
Apple does not publish a future cutoff list years ahead, so exact timing can change. If you need a definite answer, check Apple’s current iOS support list when you’re close to 2027.
