Apple this week announced a string of artificial intelligence (AI) updates to its operating systems in one of the most jam-packed WWDC keynotes in the company's history. For the iPhone, Apple debuted iOS 18, the latest iteration of the smartphone software, with enhanced AI integrations in Siri, generative AI capabilities in Photos and Messages, and even updates to its Health and Calculator apps.
Also: You can download iOS 18 beta on your iPhone right now. Here's how (and which models support it)
With every new iOS version, Apple pulls the plug on one or two older iPhone models, marking the end of the devices' software support cycle. Most of the newest AI features are reserved for the iPhone 15 Pro and newer models, as they require the processing power of an A17 Pro chipset or newer. For just about every other benefit of the newest operating system version, here's the list of supported iPhone models.
According to Apple, these iPhone models will get iOS 18 when it becomes available:
Notably, the once-popular iPhone X model is not on the list. Older devices like the iPhone 8 series also didn't make the cut this year. As for what's to come, Apple is expected to announce the iPhone 16 lineup in September with iOS 18, presumably with new A18 silicon.
Apple typically releases its new operating systems for public beta access a few weeks after WWDC. We expect iOS 18 to be available in public beta by July.

The public beta program lets users test developing software to pinpoint bugs and performance issues. This is done so that software teams can make any necessary fixes and releases before the new system reaches general availability.
Apple will likely release iOS 18 out of beta this fall, following Apple's September iPhone event, at which the company announces new models and potentially other hardware.
