<h3><a href="#device-lifetime">How long can GrapheneOS support my device for?</a></h3>
<p>GrapheneOS can only fully provide security updates to a device provided that the OEM
is releasing them. When an OEM no longer is providing security updates, GrapheneOS aims
to provide harm reduction releases for devices which only have a minimum of 3 years support.
Extended support updates at minimum will be done until the next Android version. It is likely
that we will make a decision around harm reduction releases for other devices with longer lifetimes
in Q4 2024. Harm reduction releases do not have complete security patches because it's not possible
to provide full security updates for the device without OEM support and they are intended to
buy users some limited time to migrate to a supported device.</p>
