iOS 19 , set to be unveiled at WWDC 2025 in a few months , will supposedly remove support from the three oldest iPhone models that can still run iOS 18 .

That contradicts a report that said all iOS 18 phones will also run iOS 19 this fall .

The three iPhones that will stay on iOS 18 rather than upgrading to iOS 19 are the models Apple launched in 2018 : iPhone XR, iPhone XS , and iPhone XXS Max .

Apple will only announce iOS 19 and iPadOS 19 compatibility information at the end of the year .

For the latest software update, you’ll need an iPhone made in 2019 or later.
