It’s extremely common to support the two most recent major versions, especially for iOS. It’s great if things work on iOS 14, but it’s been explicitly out of support for over a year in a vast number of organisations.


That's the well-established expectation for iOS.

The web has a pretty different set of expectations, one of the reasons for its success.


Not these days, where most people are using evergreen browsers and iOS users upgrade very quickly.

Take a look at the defaults for browserslist, for example:

https://browsersl.ist/#q=defaults

It just barely supports Safari 15, on iOS only, and that’s likely to go away imminently because it’s under 1% usage.

Browserslist is used by a huge proportion of web developers and the tools that they use, with millions of downloads a week. It has nothing to do with native apps and everything to do with the web.
