The hardware in the iPhone 7......cannot support the software requirements of iOS 16. It all has to to with processor speed and other boring stuff like that.


But....just for fun....let's assume that you can install iOS 16 on the iPhone 7....(even though you can't)....


The iPhone 7 would run unbelievably slow.....and probably so hot.....that it would be unusable. You would be begging to reload iOS 15 back onto the phone.....(which you would not be able to do)

We are not making things difficult for you. This is a user-to-user forum, and we are simply reporting what the iPhone 7 Plus can and cannot do.

It's Microsoft who develops the Microsoft Outlook app for the iPhone. And it's Microsoft who decided that the current version of the app would require iOS 16.0 or later. You may "need" the app – and tell us that you "don't have money to buy anather [sic] iPhone," – but that won't change the fact that the app requires an iOS version that cannot run, and will never run, on your iPhone 7 Plus.


If you don't have money for a newer phone, you'll need to do without this app on your phone, and look for other ways to access your e-mail and calendars.


You could provide feedback to Microsoft. Realistically, that is not likely to convince them to release a version of that app that will run on the iPhone 7 Plus.
