Who the hell cares that one's phone is going out of support? This anal obsession with OS updates for some people is honestly appalling. If the phone doesn't get updated every micro second the sky is falling and the phone becomes a dangerous place. What are you doing on your phone that you need to be on top of OS security so badly? Browsing on the dark web? Going to sketchy sites? Have no password savers or 2nd factor auth? I had a Samsung galaxy S7 until less than a year ago. Had ZERO issues. Now calculate how many years I was out of support. I have now a Pixel 4a5G. I will only trade it for another for the same reason I did with the S7 - when it becomes too slow. Or it explodes, or turns to dust.

I do not care about getting the latest updates, I care about having all the vulnerabilities being fixed. Can you load a malicious WebM file without executing arbitrary code in a webview on your S7?

I use my phone to access work stuff. That's a huge reason to need security updates.

Yes, the WebView got upgraded via the Play Store.
