I want to know which iPhones still receive security updates and for how long they will be supported for? I know it's all online, I saw it very recently, but for some reason I cannot find it anywhere today. Thank you.
iPhone 11, iOS 16
This is a list of devices compatible with the latest OS, not a list of devices receiving up-to-date security patches. Many people don't care about the latest OS features: They just want to know whether and for how long their phone is still safe to use. Is there a warning displayed somewhere on the phone when it's obsolete?

I've personally never seen any Apple provided documentation disclosing how long a device will be supported for, but if you find it I'd love to see it!
If you're questioning OS support specifically, Apple has historically supported devices for up to 6 years of OS updates, and the occasional security update here and there.
Thank you so much, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks mate have a good day.
Where can I see which iPhones still get security updates and for how long they will recieve them?
