So, if you’re wondering whether your iPhone will support iOS 15, here is a complete list of iOS 15 compatible devices.

iOS 15 Supported iPhones (Confirmed)

Mostly, Apple offers software updates to old iPhones for up to 5 to 6 years. This year is no different. Apple is supporting some pretty old iPhones for iOS 15. Read on to find out the complete list of iOS 15 supported iPhones.

This year, Apple is supporting iOS 15 on a whole slew of iPhones. Basically if your iPhone can run iOS 14, it will get iOS 15 as well. That’s really impressive from Apple. Here is the full list.

  • iPhone 12 Pro Max

So, these are the compatible devices that will get the iOS 15 update. With a slew of new features and performance enhancements, it becomes a challenge to support older devices with aging hardware. But Apple has still managed to bring iOS 15 to the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, which is commendable.

You can't tweak the screen recording quality, frame rate and other settings. This calls for reliance on third-party screen recording Android apps, like XRecorder, AZ Recorder and Mobizen. These are free too, with only certain features like recording at over 60 FPS being locked behind a paywall.
