Every year, Apple releases important updates to its
iOS and iPadOS mobile operating systems, as well as watchOS updates for the
Apple Watch at Apple’s
annual WWDC event. This time also Apple
officially announced its iOS 15 for iPhones, iPadOS 15, watchOS 8, and macOS
Monterey software.
The next update will be available this fall for
iPhones, iPads, Apple Watches, and Macs, usually around September when the new
iPhones are announced.
The developer beta for the new operating systems is
currently accessible, and the public beta will be available in July. Take a
look at the devices that will receive iOS 15, iPadOS 15, watchOS 8, and macOS
Monterey below.
iOS 15:
iPhone 6S (including Plus)
iPhone SE (first and second generation)
iPod Touch (seventh generation)
Given that the iPhone 6S was released in late 2015,
iOS 15 is the device's sixth major update. Along with SE and iPod Touch models,
any iPhone built after this date will receive the upgrade for free.
You can find out what iPhone you have by going to
Settings > General > About. Your iPhone will be listed under "Model
Name," with the iOS version you're using mentioned above it.
iPadOS 15:
iPad Pro 12.9-inch (first generation through fifth
generation)
iPad Pro 11-inch (first generation through third
generation)
iPad Pro 10.5-inch
iPad Pro 9.7-inch
iPad (fifth generation through eighth generation)
iPad Mini (fourth and fifth generation)
iPad Air (second generation through fourth
generation)
Under Settings > General > About, you may get
any essential information about your tablet or the software you're using right
now.
watchOS 8:
Apple is also releasing the next major version of
its wearable operating system, in addition to its smartphone and tablet
updates. Apple Watch Series 3 and later, including the Apple Watch SE, will be
able to run watchOS 8.
These are the same Apple Watch devices that can
already run watchOS 7. Launch the Watch app on your iPhone and go to General
> About to see which Apple Watch you have and what software version it has.
