Hello JJLL77,


The iPhone 7 Plus can not be updated to iOS 16. You will need an iPhone SE (2nd generation) or later in order to install iOS 16. This article shows the devices that are compatible with iOS 16:

iOS 16 and iPadOS 16 are compatible with these devices - Apple Support


You can make sure you have the latest iOS version for your iPhone by following the steps here:

Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

Update your iPhone or iPad wirelessly
1. Back up your device using iCloud or your computer.
2. Plug your device into power and connect to the internet with Wi-Fi.
3. Go to Settings > General, then tap Software Update.
4. If you see more than one software update option available, choose the one that you want to install.
5. Tap Install Now. If you see Download and Install instead, tap it to download the update, enter your passcode, then tap Install Now. If you don't know your passcode, learn what to do.


Best Regards.
