Great until you have a problemI like STARZ until you have a problem then it’s wait and nobody knows what you’re talking about. I’m no longer a customer because they don’t understand unless it’s something simple.

StarzI am unable to subscribe to STARZ because I don’t think that ml IOS is large enough and I don’t know how to get IOS 18 on my phone. Am I able to get the IOS version on my iPhone and if so, how do I do it?
