Apple on Monday unveiled its next-generation mobile operating system, iOS 27 for iPhones, with developer and public beta releases expected in the coming weeks.
The official rollout is scheduled for September and will arrive on compatible iPhones around the same time as the launch of the iPhone 18 Pro and Apple’s anticipated foldable iPhone models, which are expected to ship with iOS 27 preinstalled.
The update continues Apple’s long-standing software support strategy, extending compatibility as far back as the iPhone 11 series released in 2019. However, while many older devices will be able to install the new operating system, some of iOS 27’s most advanced features will remain limited to newer hardware.
