My iPhone 6 is currently running ios 12.5.7 and i tried update to the available and compatible software but it would not permit me rather I get “iphone is currently up to day” I can’t find the current software package in the storage for deletion too.

You’re already running the current software for your device. It can’t go any further.

iphone 6. Does it mean it can’t be update further ? I’ve got some user who are able to update to iOS 15.4. Of course, same model. Thanks


You're probably looking at different models without realizing it.


  • The iPhone 6s is a newer phone than the iPhone 6. But the name is only different by one letter.
  • The iPhone 6s Plus is a newer phone than the iPhone 6 Plus. But the name is only different by one letter.


Among these four models, ones with the 's' in the name can upgrade to the latest version of iOS 15. The ones without the 's' can only upgrade to the latest version of iOS 12.
