the IOS16 didnt show on my software update.

Very Strange, but I have only software update to 15.7, and I didn’t see the option to update a IOS 16.. I have iPhone11.. and already my friends got 16.. but not me. Okay.. I waited a longer time, bet there we now, have a update but it’s 15.7.1…. Can I somehow update IOS16?

iPhone 11, iOS 15
