As an example, once iOS 10 is presumably released later in 2016, there should be no expectation of security fixes for iOS 9 (whatever the last version will be). … Other than iOS 6.1. 6, there have been no security updates issued for old versions of iOS after a newer major version has been released.
Is iOS 9 still secure?
iOS 9 is still plenty secure, and unless your mom is visiting questionable websites, she’ll be just fine. Apple does occasionally release security updates for older iOS versions when a serious flaw is found (see iOS 7.0. 6 and iOS 6.1. 6, released simultaneously to patch a critical SSL bug).
How long will iOS 9 be supported?
Current versions of iOS now stretch support for up to five years, which is much longer than what you can expect from any premium Android phone. It seems that Apple wants to keep the momentum going with its next iOS update and that means your old iPhone from five years ago could continue to live for another year.
