LG announced just over four years ago that it would depart the smartphone business, and now the clock is running out on any remaining updates for the company’s Android phones.
When LG called it quits for Android smartphones, the company also committed to a few more updates. That included an Android 12 update for select devices, the last major update the company would put out, as well as security updates for at least three years after each device had been released. That three-year cutoff has long since passed for all LG devices, but any devices still floating around out there will soon no longer be able to pull updates. That’s because, on June 30, LG will shut down the servers for its Android updates.
After that date, LG smartphones still in use will no longer be able to get over-the-air updates from LG or through the LG Bridge application. Android Authority highlighted the shutdown, with LG having announced the shutdown on April 10.
