iTunes 12.7: What's New
There are quite a few changes in iTunes 12.7 that you might like to know.
Removal of the App store - The new iTunes is designed to focus solely on music, movies, TV shows, podcasts, and audiobooks. In result, the App Store has been entirely eliminated in iTunes 12.7, as has the ringtones section of iTunes. Now apps can only be downloaded on an iOS device using iOS App Store, and the same goes for ringtones.
No need to sync - In the update prompt, Apple mentions, 'If you previously used iTunes to sync apps or ringtones on your iOS device, use the new App Store or Sounds Settings on iOS to redownload them without your Mac.'

On September 19, 2019, iOS 13 was released. Present requirements for iOS 13 include Mac OS 10.11.6 for iTunes 12.8 as a bare minimum.
On May 29, 2019, it was found that iOS 12.1.5 could sync with iTunes on Mac OS X 10.10.5 if you kept iTunes 12.5.5.
This thread discusses more of the inconsistent requirements that were initially stated:

Be very careful to backup your data properly to avoid problems. Consider a lightning port data transfer device if you need to backup data. And remember no backup is complete, unless you know you have two working copies.
