MAC OS support period and support end date

The actual support life cycle of MAC OS has not been announcedSupport end date is private

OS X Mountain Lion (version 10.8) is the ninth major release of macOS, Apple Inc.' S desktop and server operating system for Macintosh computers. OS X Mountain Lion was released on July 25, 2012 for purchase and download through Apple's Mac App Store, as part of a switch to releasing OS X versions online and every year, rather than every two years or so.

Actually, the OS patch provision range is decided,

Until there is a serious security bug, a patch will be releasedTherefore, you can think that the above three versions are supported.

Mac Os Catalina

As mentioned above, MAC OS X has not announced the end of support date. For this reason, there is no formal verification method, and the support end date (and its version) is not listed when you check the Applewebsite.

I don't know if this fact should be pleasing or disappointing. This is because there is a danger that the MAC OS version you are using will soon become an unsupported version and security patches will not be provided.On the other hand, support for the MAC OS version is not clearly terminated, so even if your application fails, application vendors may find it difficult to escape and may be in a favorable situation for you.However, it is generally recommended to keep the MAC OS up to date. If your MAC is an older version, we recommend that you update to the latest version immediately.
