Netflix Ends Support for Older iPhones and iPads Stuck on iOS 16

Users of iPhone 8, iPhone X, and first-gen iPads must upgrade to iOS 17 or later to continue receiving app updates and bug fixes.

  • Netflix will no longer support iOS 16, affecting devices like the iPhone 8, iPhone X, and first-generation iPad Pro.
  • Users of these older devices will not receive further updates, new features, or security patches for the Netflix app.
  • The change comes as Apple prepares to roll out iOS 18 on September 16, further pushing users to upgrade their devices.
  • Netflix users can still access their accounts on these devices for now, but future functionality is uncertain.
  • Options for affected users include upgrading to newer iPhone or iPad models that support iOS 17 or using a web browser to access Netflix.
