A handy cheat sheet for @available and #available. Apple Aligned Releases A handy cheat sheet for @available and #available. Michael Long   ∙   June 21, 2025   ∙   2 min read   ∙   View on Medium After getting frustrated too many times trying to remember what version of what worked with what, I created a handy little cheat sheet for matching@available and #available version numbers across iOS, macOS, tvIS, watchOS, and visionOS. // present @available(iOS 26.0, macOS 26.0, tvOS 26.0, watchOS 26.0, visionOS 26.0, *) #available(iOS 26.0, macOS 26.0, tvOS 26.0, watchOS 26.0, visionOS 26.0, *) // past @available(iOS 18.0, macOS 15.0, tvOS 18.0, watchOS 11.0, visionOS 2.0, *) #available(iOS 18.0, macOS 15.0, tvOS 18.0, watchOS 11.0, visionOS 2.0, *) @available(iOS 17.0, macOS 14.0, tvOS 17.0, watchOS 10.0, visionOS 1.0, *) #available(iOS 17.0, macOS 14.0, tvOS 17.0, watchOS 10.0, visionOS 1.0, *) @available(iOS 16.0, macOS 13.0, tvOS 16.0, watchOS 9.0, *) #available(iOS 16.0, macOS 13.0, tvOS 16.0, watchOS 9.0, *) @available(iOS 15.0, macOS 12.0, tvOS 15.0, watchOS 8.0, *) #available(iOS 15.0, macOS 12.0, tvOS 15.0, watchOS 8.0, *) @available(iOS 14.0, macOS 11.0, tvOS 14.0, watchOS 7.0, *) #available(iOS 14.0, macOS 11.0, tvOS 14.0, watchOS 7.0, *) @available(iOS 13.0, macOS 10.15, tvOS 13.0, watchOS 6.0, *) #available(iOS 13.0, macOS 10.15, tvOS 13.0, watchOS 6.0, *) @available(iOS 12.0, macOS 10.14, tvOS 12.0, watchOS 5.0, *) #available(iOS 12.0, macOS 10.14, tvOS 12.0, watchOS 5.0, *) @available(iOS 11.0, macOS 10.13, tvOS 11.0, watchOS 4.0, *) #available(iOS 11.0, macOS 10.13, tvOS 11.0, watchOS 4.0, *) //future @available(iOS 27.0, macOS 27.0, tvOS 27.0, watchOS 27.0, visionOS 27.0, *) #available(iOS 27.0, macOS 27.0, tvOS 27.0, watchOS 27.0, visionOS 27.0, *) Now that we have aligned version numbers as of iOS 26, it's not quite as bad as it used to be. But what we really need now is… @available(aligned 26.0, *) Which indicates that the following code works on any iOS 26 aligned device. Face it. I'm lazy There's also a gist. Bookmark it for later.
