Netflix to End Support for Some Older Apple Devices:
Netflix is discontinuing support for several older apple devices, starting with halting updates for these models. If you're using an iphone or iPad running iOS 16 that won’t be upgradeable to newer versions, it might be time to consider replacing your device. apple is set to release iOS 18 this week, and since iOS 16 is now two years old, only a few devices will still be using it. If you have an iphone X, iphone Xs, or iphone 8, it’s advisable to upgrade.
While Netflix’s decision may seem sudden, it allows the service to concentrate on devices that support the latest features and security updates. With apple discontinuing updates for iOS 16, third-party apps, including Netflix, are likely to reduce their support, explaining why the update cycle for devices such as the iphone X and iPad 5 is ending this month. Although Netflix will still work on these older devices, the lack of future updates suggests that support is coming to an end.
Similarly, whatsapp frequently updates its compatibility, often announcing which older devices will no longer be supported after a certain period. Despite iPhones being known for their strong security, apple must make room for newer models, including the iphone 16 series starting this month
