iOS 15, iPadOS 15, tvOS 15 and watchOS 8 to arrive today: Check if your device is compatible

Here are all the devices Apple's new software is compatible with

Apple will launch huge software upgrades to all of its devices later today. The list includes iOS 15, iPadOS 15, watchOS 8 and tvOS 15. A release date for macOS 12 Monterey has not been announced as of yet.

While there is no official confirmation what the release time will be, speculations from MacRumors suggest that Apple will stick to its traditional release timings. In this case, that would be 10am PT (Pacific Time).

This suggests that India should likely start seeing update prompts on Apple devices starting at 10:30pm IST (Indian Standard time). On occasion, Apple have known to shift release windows up to 1pm PT but as MacRumors says the Indian website mentions a release date of September 20 which means Apple will have roll out the updates before 11:30am to make the date.

Either way, you should start seeing update notifications between 10:30pm and 11:30pm IST. If you miss the update notifications on your device or it doesn't show up for some reason, you can manually check for updates by navigating to Settings, then tapping on General and selecting Software Update.
