iOS 10 release date, time, and eligible devices: here's what you need to know

The dust after the latest Apple event has (seemingly) settled already and among the announcements that were made was the official release date of iOS 10, the newest version of the operating system for iOS devices. It's hard to blame you for not remembering the date itself - after all, so many announcements were made on stage, some more polarizing than others. Without further ado, iOS will be released on.

Note: If you have been enrolled in Apple's beta program and have been rocking iOS 10 beta for the past few months, the golden master of iOS 10 should already be rolling to your device.

Also have in mind that certain new iOS 10 features will only be available on select newer devices. For example, Raise to wake requires and iPhone SE, iPhone 6s, or later - the iPhone 5, 5c, as well as iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are not compliant with that feature.
