Which Apps Are Incompatible With iOS 17?

Apple will release iOS 27, the newest version of the software that powers your iPhone, in September 2026.

You can find incompatible apps by iOS here:

We maintain a database of more than 500 apps (and we’re adding new ones every day), from which we’ve compiled a clear, up-to-date list of the apps that are no longer compatible with iOS 17 - see below.

If you're looking for a specific app, we can use our App Compatibility Checker to find out which iPhones are compatible!
