Pokemon Go to end support for these iPhones, Android phones in October

Pokemon Go was once the most popular mobile game, with players running around in the real world to try and capture Pokemons on their mobile phones. The game has lost its mass appeal, but there is still a dedicated crowd that plays it daily to capture new Pokemon and conquer gyms. If you are one of those dedicated gamers playing it on devices running Android 5.0 Lollipop (or below) or iOS 11 (or below), there is some bad news for you.

Niantic via its Twitter handle has announced it will be pushing an update in mid-October that will end support for the game on devices running Android 5.0 Lollipop (or below) and iOS 11 (or below). Apart from this, two popular older phones, iPhone 5S and iPhone 6, will also not be making the cut. Even though both of these devices can be updated to iOS 12.
