*Netflix will stop updating its app on older iPhones and iPads*
<https://www.theverge.com/2024/9/13/24243597/netflix-app-support-ending-ios16-iphones-ipads>

The Netflix app is dropping full support for older iPhones and iPads that
are stuck at iOS 16. [Netflix] no longer plans to ship updates to that
version of the app unless critically necessary.

The change only impacts devices that can't be updated to iOS 17, such as
the iPhone X, iPhone 8, and iPhone 8 Plus handsets, and Apple's
first-generation iPad Pro and iPad 5 tablets. Netflix is not guaranteeing
future patches for bugs and other security concerns with those devices, but
says it might for critical errors.

Since Apple wackos never bother to even click on links before brazenly
denying all facts in those links are wrong, please see also

Of all vendors, only Apple fully supports only a single release at a time.
