Looking to update your iPhone?


What to do:

A. Go Here: Update iOS on iPhone - Apple Support



B. Verify Compatibility:

What are you looking to update to? Your iPhone model (iPhone 6) cannot be updated to iOS13 and iOS14.. So, if updating is not an option, then it is because you iPhone does not meet the hardware requirements for this iOS versions. That's just the way it is :(


Important:

C. Back Up First:

If you have an option to update, however, then be certain you backup your iPhone first. That way, you will have something to restore your iPhone from should anything go wrong with the update.
