I wanna use iOS 15 on my iPhone 8+ without updating to iOS16. I can't get latest security updates.

Menu Settings->General->Software update offers me only 1 option update to iOS 16.6.

Now I have iOS version 15.7.1 and there's no way to get important security updates 15.7.8.

The intended upgrade path here is the upgrade to iOS 16.6.

iOS 15.7.8 is for iPhone 6s and iPhone 7; for models that can’t get to iOS 16.

iOS 16 is the last supported version for iPhone 8 Plus.

Now I have iOS version 15.7.1 and there's no way to get important security updates 15.7.8.

Correct.

Same here my iPhone says it’s up to date but my apps say other wise

Which iPhone (8?),

which iOS version is in use,

and are there any add-on first-few-hops VPN clients around?
