When iOS 14 arrives this fall, it will bring significant changes to the iPhone.
The latest version of Apple’s iPhone operating system, which the company unveiled Monday at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference, will come with upgrades to the iPhone’s home screen, a new Translate app, and picture-in-picture video. Apple is also adding new tools like App Clips – smaller versions of apps to be used right at the moment of need – and digital car keys, which will allow you to unlock and start your car using your iPhone.
Like years past, however, not every Apple device will get access to iOS 14. When Apple unveiled iOS 13 last spring, it announced that the new software would only be available for the iPhone 6 and newer. This year, the iPhone 6S generation, which was released in 2015, will be the oldest iPhones to get the upgrade.
Here are all the devices that will have access to iOS 14:
- iPhone SE (first generation)
- iPod Touch (seventh generation)
- iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus
- iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus
- iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus
- iPhone X
- iPhone XR
- iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max
- iPhone 11
- iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max
