iOS 15 release date

The final version of iOS 15 is being rolled out today, September 20, for all compatible iPhone models (listed below). With this, we will see the end of the iOS 15 beta testing program, which was available since June this year for developers and July for the public.

In the latest version of iOS, Apple has invested more in features compared to cosmetic changes. With that, Safari now offers a simpler method of navigation, and we have a better way to handle distractions via Focus Mode, while FaceTime now allows broader access for those who do not own an Apple device.

Check out our complete iOS 15 guide to learn what are the features one can expect to see in the next version of Apple's mobile operating system.

iPhones compatible with iOS 15

The mobile operating system will be offered for phones starting with the iPhone 6S/6S Plus. Below, you can check out the full list of iPhone models that are compatible with iOS 15. Good luck!

In addition to the handsets listed above, the iPod touch (7th generation) should also receive the update as with previous editions of iOS.

Updating the operating system on your iPhone will be done Over-the-Air (OTA), meaning you only need an Internet connection to receive the update file. To check whether iOS 15 is available for your smartphone, follow the steps described on our guide on how to update the software of your iPhone.

I have 15 years of experience reviewing smartphones and wearables, blending tech know-how with a real love for innovation. I've led popular tech sites like AndroidPIT and Canaltech in Brazil, and now I share my insights with audiences around the globe—including in the US, Germany, France, Spain, and Brazil—through honest, hands-on reviews. Recently, I've shifted my focus toward digital health, with a keen eye on gender equality and closing the gender data gap. I'm passionate about using simple, clear storytelling to give women a stronger voice in both tech and health. Whether I'm testing the latest gadgets or exploring new trends in digital health, I always aim to break things down in a way that's easy to understand. On a personal note, I'm an active runner—I completed the Berlin Marathon in 2024—and I'm gearing up for a long bike trip from Germany to Austria in just four days in 2025.
