Keeping track of Apple OS support across a fleet of devices is a constant chore. Whether you are planning a hardware refresh, scoping a macOS upgrade, or answering a user who wants to keep their old iPad, the answer to “does this model still get updates?” is scattered across dozens of Apple support pages — and the moment Apple ships a new release, your notes are out of date. That is exactly the gap OSversions.com fills.
The problem: Apple OS support data is fragmented
Apple publishes compatibility information, but it lives per OS release and per product page. There is no single, structured view of Apple OS support that answers practical fleet questions such as:
- Which iPhones will not get the next iOS release?
- How many years of support has a given iPad already had?
- Which Macs are on the macOS 27 compatibility list?
- When a new OS drops, which devices get dropped with it?
For device lifecycle planning, you need that data in one place — and ideally in a format you can automate.
What OSversions.com gives you
OSversions.com turns Apple OS support into a database you can read in both directions, which is what makes it fast to use:
- By device — see every OS version a model supports, how many years of support it has had, and its latest release.
- By OS version — see which devices run it, and which models were dropped compared to the previous version.
On top of that:
- A support matrix per product line (iPhone, iPad, iPad Pro, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple TV, Vision Pro) — the same overview many admins keep in a spreadsheet, but maintained for you.
- Compare two or three models side by side.
- Coming soon and End of support pages — what gets the next release, and what no longer receives major updates. Directly useful for replacement decisions.
- Fast search by model name or OS version, including code names like “Sequoia.”
It covers the full ecosystem: iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS and visionOS, including the historical “Apple TV Software” line that preceded tvOS.
Apple OS support via API: Jamf, Intune and Excel
This is where OSversions.com saves real time in managed environments. Every bit of data is available through a free, read-only API — no key required.
- Jamf Pro and other MDMs. Pull the latest supported OS version for a model with a single JSON call. The site includes a ready-to-use Jamf extension attribute example, so you can surface “latest supported OS” as device inventory data and build smart groups around aging hardware.
- Excel via Power Query. Build a refreshable table of your models and their latest supported version in a few clicks, choosing exactly which platforms to include. Step-by-step instructions are on the site.
- CSV export for anyone who prefers to work directly in a spreadsheet.
Connecting your inventory to live Apple OS support data — without manual lookups — makes lifecycle reporting and refresh planning genuinely repeatable.
Why we share it
At Emmpoint, our focus is keeping enterprise device management predictable. Knowing a device’s supported lifespan is part of that: it drives when you replace hardware, how long devices stay secure, and when an OS update will leave a hardware generation behind. OSversions.com is our way of making Apple OS support information openly available to the wider Apple-management community.
The database is kept up to date as Apple announces new models and releases.
