Thanks Zacchy , but do I have to buy a new I phone now ( 16??)

If you want modern apps on your iPhone, you'll need to buy a newer or new iPhone, which is capable of running newer iOS versions. If you want a new phone from Apple that would be either iPhone 15 (not pro as the 15 Pro is discontinued) or any iPhone 16 model. If you want to use Apple Intelligence, you'll want an iPhone 16 model. It really is time to retire your 11 year old iPhone 6 at this point.

Do we need a cup of coffee?? 😉
No. We need two. ☕️☕️ But why did they discontinue a newer iPhone? Is it something they do every year? Is it only specific to Pro models? I’ll be honest lobster, I’ve never heard of this.

No worries, but Apple discontinues the Pro models when the new Pro model is released and has done so for several years now. When iPhone 13 Pro was released, the 12 Pro was discontinued. When 14 Pro was released, 13 Pro was discontinued and so on and so on. They typically keep the non-pro model in the lineup as a value leader for another year. Next year, when iPhone 17 Pro is released, we will see the 16 Pro discontinued, and likely the 15 as well. Then the value leader when the 17 Pro is current will be iPhone 16 and 16e.
