Yeah the 6 is the previous generation, this old versioning style was confusing

I don’t think the comment you’re replying to suggests never stopping updates. I don’t suggest that either. Otherwise people will think software is properly patched when it isn’t and application developers will not be able to modernize their stacks. I think currently 5 years is acceptable but we should strive for more. Some of these Android ones are BS.

I think it will get updates with bug fixes and security updates.

iOS 12.5.7 for the iPhone 6 came out this year as a security update.
