iOS 27.2

Latest public iOS release · October 26, 2026

Apple lists iOS 27.2 as the current public release. It includes new features, bug fixes, and security updates. Apple’s release list

What this update adds

• Siri improvements: on supported devices, Siri can use more personal context and recall earlier interactions. You can also copy part of a response.
• More control: Excluded Apps lets you limit which apps Siri, Search, and suggestions can use.
• Messages shortcuts: conversations can suggest actions in Calendar and Reminders.
• Shared Albums: edit captions and comments, reduce duplicates, and get reminders before an album expires.

Siri AI is a beta feature within the public iOS 27.2 release. It requires iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max or an iPhone 16 model or later. Language and region restrictions apply; Apple says Siri AI is unavailable in the EU and mainland China. An iOS version number alone doesn’t guarantee access to every feature.

Can your iPhone run it?

Apple’s compatibility list includes the iPhone 11 family and later, plus iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generation). That includes iPhone SE 3, iPhone 15, and iPhone 16e. Installing iOS 27 does not give every model every feature. Check Apple’s full compatibility list

Android

Android 17

Latest major public Android release · Initial rollout June 16, 2026

Google began with Pixel phones, with other eligible devices following on manufacturer schedules. There isn’t one universal latest build or patch date for every Android phone.

What it does

• Bubbles: keep an app in a small floating window while using another.
• Screen Reactions: capture your screen and selfie-camera commentary together.
• Foldable gaming: layouts designed to make better use of a folding screen.
• Security improvements: additional protections and controls around device and app access.

Features depend on the device and its software. Google’s Android 17 overview

Pixel, Galaxy, and other phones

Pixel: updates can arrive in stages. Check Google’s model support policy and your phone’s update screen.

Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro: Google’s five-year policy window reached October 2026. Android 17 remains the latest verified release, but future OS or security updates are not promised.

Galaxy: Samsung’s One UI version and your Android version are different labels. Check your exact model, region, and carrier; an Android announcement alone doesn’t confirm your Galaxy’s rollout. Samsung’s security update scope

Galaxy A07, A54, and A55: Samsung India’s November 6 page lists Galaxy A07 and A54 under completed One UI 9 / Android 17 upgrades for November 2026, and Galaxy A55 for October 2026, but does not identify model numbers. Samsung Hong Kong lists SM-A5560 completed on October 30 while SM-A5460 remains scheduled for November. These notices are region- and variant-specific, not worldwide availability, and Samsung says schedules may change. Samsung India’s completed-upgrade list · Samsung Hong Kong’s One UI 9 notice

Other brands: use the manufacturer’s support page for your exact model. Google confirms that update timing varies by manufacturer and carrier. Android update help

November security updates

Google published the November Android bulletin on November 2 and updated it on November 6 with 2026-11-01 and 2026-11-05 security patch levels. Check the security update date in Settings separately from your Android version; a published bulletin does not mean the patch is available for every phone. Google’s November bulletin

Samsung published its November Security Maintenance Release on November 3 and revised its CVE list on November 5. It includes applicable Google, Samsung Semiconductor, and Samsung Mobile fixes, but delivery still depends on your exact Galaxy model, region, and carrier. Samsung’s November security details

Major version, security patch, or beta?

Check your Android version, security update date, and Google Play system update separately. A quarterly feature release or monthly patch may keep the same Android version number. Beta notes describe test software; they are not proof that an update is available to everyone.

Keep a useful phone useful

Older iPhones still have their own update tracks.

The newest major version isn’t the only release to check. These are the latest entries for these older tracks in Apple’s list when we checked; they are not a promise of future support.

Use the version offered in your phone’s Software Update screen and consult Apple’s current release list. Older software tracks may receive different fixes from the latest major release.

A two-minute check

Nothing new showing?

Confirm your exact model, check the manufacturer’s support information, and remember that releases can be staged. A version number on this page doesn’t override the update offered for your device. For a work-managed phone, check with your IT team.
