Since the FBI refuses to say what the exploit was, all we *know* is that it works with a 5c (or earlier), with iOS 7 (or earlier).
It probably does NOT work with any device with a "secure enclave" — which is any with TouchID (5S, 6, 6+, 6S, 6S+, iPad Pro's).
And *likely * not with iOS 9, which has greatly increased security from iOS 7.
