Apple stopped selling 32-bit iOS devices in 2015. There is still a lot of 32-bit devices out there that are still supported by the newest OS, including my 2011 iPad 2. Developers can ship 64-bit only apps today if they want, the App Store allows that.

... and then came the Apple Watch which is 32-bit and runs watchOS, a pared-down down iOS.
