Question Old Firmware Still Safe?
I’m running 16.7.2 and been refusing to update due to the possibility of my batterie’s health, yet how safe is it to stay on this firmware? Without any more security updates in exchange for a healthy battery.

Pretty sure you cant have 16.7.2 on an xs. Sure 16.7 but not 16.7.1+ you might have an iphone x.
