Hello Shai,

Thanks for the tip, I just Googled "iOS 10.3. on the iPhone 5" and found a 
number of references indicating that the iPhone 5/5C may be left in the cold 
soon despite the fact that Apple states in general that iOS 10 is compatible 
with the iPhone 5. It is of course the last phone with a 32 bit processor that 
is supported since starting with the 5S the processors were all 64 Bit. I hen 
found the following article from AppleInsider.com which states that the 10.3 
over the air update briefly showed up on the iPhone 5 on March 29 when it was 
released, but Apple quickly pulled it without specifying a reason. This would 
of course explain why iPhone 5 users who didn't upgrade immediately don't see 
the update now. The article does, however, also state that you can still update 
your iPhone 5 and I assume 5C to iOS 10.3 via iTunes, here is the link:

http://appleinsider.com/articles/17/03/29/over-the-air-ios-103-update-for-iphone-5-5c-pulled-by-apple-for-reasons-unknown

Regards,

Subject: Re: Is IOS 10.3 available for iPhone 5?

Hello  Jeffrey,
I just tried to check for updates here on my iPhone5 and I am receiving the 
same behavior as you describe for your clients that it shows my software being 
up to date despite it being 10.2.1. I have tried restarting the phone but to no 
avail. I thought I had seen something which stated that 10.3 would not be 
supported on the iPhone5 being that Apple switched to the APFS file system in 
this release and that there may be some features which are not compatible.
