How to upgrade my iPhone 7 to iOS 16?

Need iOS 16 for Netflix but it’s not available for my iPhone 7 and it’s already updated itself about a week ago. Will it ever be available , if so when?

If you need iOS 16, then it's time to buy a newer more modern iPhone which is capable of running higher iOS versions than an iPhone 7 can run. No one can help you install an iOS version which cannot be installed on your iPhone. And iOS 16 most definitely CANNOT be installed on iPhone 7.

The iPhone 7 cannot run iOS 16 or higher. Since the developers of the Netflix app have decided to require iOS 16 or higher, you will need to get a newer iPhone if you want to run that app. I would suggest an iPhone that is on the list of phones that will be compatible with iOS 18 (when it comes out).


Automated translation (to Spanish): "El iPhone 7 no puede ejecutar iOS 16 o superior. Dado que los desarrolladores de la aplicación Netflix han decidido requerir iOS 16 o superior, necesitarás conseguir un iPhone más nuevo si quieres ejecutar esa aplicación.
