Installing iOS 15 on an iPhone 6s! (again…) - The Final Release

[@DrewTNaylor]

Glad the final build just moves the address bar to the bottom rather than having it be floating.

[@Techtype_]

As someone who had the entire beta thing on my daily iPhone, they added it in beta 7 or 8 a few weeks ago. It feels way more “stable” and the original one felt pretty flimsy but it was fine tbh

I prefer the floating, it’s more compact and looks better

[@anianii]

I used the floating bar from beta 1 to beta 5 and have to say I much preferred it that way… Sad they changed it

[@EvilTurkeySlices]

The refresh button got added back in beta 4. It also added a refresh button when the bar is collapsed, but Apple removed it in beta 6.(which is a shame because I liked it)

[@halami2149]

Me too, I preferred the simpler and more clean floating design. They had a good compromise by adding that refresh button. I hope they add the option to do have that floating bar back. But as long as the swipe gestures are there, it’s okay

[@denniswoycheshen]

Can't you just pull the page down to refresh?

[@EvilTurkeySlices]

@@denniswoycheshen yeah, but you have to go to the top of the page to do so.

[@denniswoycheshen]

[@askhowiknow5527]

Installing it through DFU mode on iTunes or on a Mac always seems to be better. That way it's a clean install instead of an update all the way through

[@preciadoalex123]

I I thought updating thru iTunes is a full install vs OTA update I forgot how exactly that goes but it's like pancaked into the current OS

[@krispyhd9484]

@@Jaguarek62 ah thanks

[@halami2149]

Give it a shot, especially on a big phone, it’s nice to have the address bar at the bottom. Plus, you get swipe gestures between tabs, you can even swipe up like you would on an iPhone without a home button, and get to all your tabs. And if you’re at the last tab, swiping over will open a new tab, which is quicker than going to your tab view and then tapping the +

All of the new features of iOS 15 only applies on iPhone Xs and above (A12 Bionic and above) This also applies on iPadOS.

You mean the iPhone 6s? The iPhone 6 was supported from iOS 8 to iOS 12.

[@andresbravo2003]

It worked fine on My iPhone 7. Hello Michael, Glad you're here.

[@wctcasc]

On my iPhone (XR) I got gifted by someone who was already in Apple devices (not a Mac) on August 3rd 2023, I started out with iOS 15, then upgraded from that to iOS 16, then upgraded to iOS 17. And a little bit before the upgrade. I actually switched to iOS as my primary phone. Before I was deciding whether to switch to iOS or not. I installed Gmail to make it half complete.

[@LNCRFT]

Is this a miracle? The 6S isn’t jebaiting on you for once.

jebaiting?

Did this as well, upgraded from 17.0 beta to like 17.1.2. Worked perfectly fine, used an iPhone SE 2022.. And I didn't even use iTunes,. To be honest, I think I've had a pretty good clean slate with using all running operating systems, I mean I've installed and downgraded from Windows 11 on unsupported hardware, I've installed and downgraded android, I haven't yet worked out how to downgrade iOS, and all the updates that I've done, all, but one of them through one of them was for iTunes the rest was for settings.
