As multiple articles describe, Apple has apparently pulled the over the air update to iOS 10.3 for the iPhone 5 and 5C for now. Whether this is permanent I have not read anywhere and according to one article I read you can go ahead and still update an iPhonen 5/5C to 10.3 with iTunes. Mike, just out of curiocity, if you have a 5S and also a 5C, why would you use the 5C instead of the much nicer 5S?

Did you see the following from ILounge? iLounge Mobile Edition Apple pulls over-the-air iOS 10.3 update for iPhone 5, 5c; iOS 10.3.2 seems to end support for them Apple has pulled back the over-the-air update to iOS 10.3 for iPhone 5 and 5c devices without giving any reason, AppleInsider reports. The update was available for a few hours before mysteriously disappearing, despite there being no noted outcry of users who had tried and failed to install the update on the devices. The update can still be installed through the standard process using iTunes, and seems to function fine on an iPhone 5c. In a related development, The Apple Post has discovered that the beta version of iOS 10.3.2 appears to end support for devices with 32-bit processors — like the iPhone 5 and 5c. The beta only contains restore images for 64-bit devices, hinting at the possibility that 32-bit devices are about to lose support. Apple announced back in 2014 that new apps or app updates would have to support 64-bit processors, and recent speculation has swirled around iOS 11 ending support for 32-bit devices. A warning dialog discovered by developers working with the iOS 10.3 beta stated that apps that have not been updated to include 64-bit support “will not work with future versions of iOS.” Given the new findings in the iOS 10.3.2 beta, the change could come sooner than expected. If so, the 4th generation iPad would also be unsupported as it features a 32-bit processor. -----Original Message----- From: Mike Arrigo Sent: Monday, April 3, 2017 7:04 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Is IOS 10.3 available for iPhone 5?
