The last time I traveled internationally from the US was 2025 so I don't know how it is now, but how would CBP know what your operating system is?
You can request a physical boarding pass at check in, so TSA and the gate will never even have to see your phone.
I assumed the concern was if they check your phone
International media has been reporting for the last year or so that the usa can now just take your phone and demand access to all of your social media etc.
