Which iPhones will not receive the iOS 26 update?

After a period of anticipation, Apple officially announced iOS 26 – the next operating system for iPhones – at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2025.

Apple has announced that iOS 26 will be released as a free software update this fall. However, not all iPhone models will receive this new operating system update.

The Liquid Glass interface is the biggest change in iOS 26.

The detailed list of iPhones that are not supported for the iOS 26 update includes:

iPhone 7

iPhone 8

iPhone XR

iPhone XS

iPhone XS Max

The biggest change in iOS 26 lies in the new Liquid Glass design. This design is applied uniformly across all software platforms developed by the company.

The new Liquid Glass interface in iOS 26 will use a semi-transparent design, acting like glass in the real world , reacting dynamically to bright and dark environments.

Additionally, iOS 26 introduces features such as changing the background image when texting, a new Games app, and live translation.
