Recently, Apple has launched system updates tailored for older Mac computers and Apple Watches. The updates encompass versions such as macOS 11.7.11, watchOS 10.6.2, and watchOS 9.6.4. These updates are meticulously crafted to prolong the support lifespan for essential device functions, guaranteeing that pivotal services like iMessage will continue to function seamlessly beyond January 2027. By refreshing digital certificates, the updates ensure that secure connections between older devices and servers are maintained. The devices impacted by these updates include select older Mac and Apple Watch models. Notably, watchOS 9.6.4 stands as the final system version that will support models such as the iPhone 8. Meanwhile, watchOS 10.6.2 is being rolled out to specific Apple Watch users. For Mac users, the upgrade process is straightforward: navigate to 'System Preferences' and then select 'Software Update'. On the other hand, Apple Watch users are required to install the updates through the Watch app on their iPhones. Furthermore, Apple has also rolled out the macOS Catalina 2026-001 security update and watchOS 6.3.1, thereby broadening the scope of support for older devices even further.
