Zoom to drop support for iOS 11, 12 next month
Zoom has declared that it will cease support for older iOS versions, specifically iOS 11 and 12, in its upcoming update in March. This means iPhone users with devices operating on these outdated systems will no longer have access to the Zoom app or receive future updates. To continue enjoying Zoom's features and enhancements, the company encourages users to update their gadgets to iOS 13 or higher.
Impact on iPhone users
In the upcoming Zoom release, the app will introduce changes such as new features and bug fixes. The company stated, "With next month's planned release, iOS users will need to upgrade to iOS 13 or higher to continue to receive additional Zoom app updates." This decision will impact those who depend on older hardware, as they will need to search for an iOS firmware or contemplate changing their devices entirely.
