[Astuces iOS]

Best iOS version ever

Best iOS version ever

Most definitely. It was a good update for older iPhones and even older iPads and is a better version than even iOS/iPadOS 16 due to how little the features were on it

Also when it comes to security updates this time around it’s good to see that the OS 15 and 16 ones nowadays share the exact same security updates ( iPadOS 17 will receive more security updates but not as much as iOS/iPadOS 18.7 onwards)

OS 15 was the last all 2GB of RAM Update for all 2GB iDevices. From the 6S, the Air 2 to the Mini 4 and the last iPod Touch iOS/iPadOS 15 is the best

When do we think support for iOS 15 will end?

Haha 6S keeps on 6S ing. 6S 4 ever! 😎
