New iOS 15 not compatible with some iPhone
We already have among us the Beta of iOS 15, which we are testing thoroughly to tell you about everything new that will come to all compatible iPhones, starting in September 2021.
Apple surprised everyone by letting it be known that the iPhone 6S and iPad Air 2 would be compatible with iOS 15 and iPadOS 15, but did not specify if you could enjoy all of them the news. That is what we are going to tell you about. The iPhone and iPad that will not be compatible with the functions that we are going to name below.
iPad and Phone compatible with iOS 15 and that will not be able to enjoy all its news:
This is the list of iPhone and iPad that will not be 100% compatible with iOS 15:
- iPhone 6s
- 6s Plus
- iPhone 7
- 7 Plus
- iPhone 8
- 8 Plus
- iPhone X
- iPad Air 2
- iPad 5 (2017)
- 6 (2018)
- 7 (2019)
- iPad mini 4
- iPad Pro 9, 7 and 10.5-inch
These are "old" devices and it is to be expected that they do not have the necessary power to execute the following functions of iOS 15:
New FaceTime Features:
In the following link learn about the most important new features of FaceTime in iOS 15. Of all of them, the ones that cannot be run on the iPhone and iPad mentioned above are:
- Portrait mode in FaceTime : with which we can blur the background live in a FaceTime call .
- Spatial Sound on FaceTime : Spatial Sound aims to revolutionize the way we hear on FaceTime calls .
Addresses in augmented reality in Apple Maps:
Nor will they be compatible with the new Apple Maps function, which allows us to scan our surroundings and receive directions in augmented reality so we don't get lost when we walk.

Apple Maps 3D Improvements:
Apple Maps has also added, in iOS 15, 3D images. This will allow us to see incredible landmarks in 3D, such as the Golden Gate Bridge. It is also a novelty that will only be available on the most powerful iPhone and iPad.
Visual search function in photos:
This interesting function allows you to obtain information about the objects in your photos. It will highlight the objects and scenes it recognizes to allow more information about them. For example, if it detects a flower, it will show us information about that specific species. This will only run on the most powerful iPhones.
Live Text Function:
Live Text iOS 15
For us it is one of the best functions of iOS 15, as we well commented in the article that we dedicated to Live Text. Access it to find out what this powerful novelty is all about. And, as we are informing you, it will only be available on the most modern iPhones.
These are cool features that not all iPad and iPhone compatible with iOS 15 can enjoy . A "need" created by Cupertino to motivate us to change devices.
Greetings.
