Read the thread. iPhone 6 Plus CANNOT be updated past iOS 12.5.7. If you are unable to download apps which require a higher level iOS version, you're out of luck with a 10 year old, no longer supported iPhone. If the apps are important to you, you'll need to retire your very old iPhone and buy a new or newer more modern iPhone. That is the ONLY solution.

Hello and welcome to the thread.


You have an iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus, and wish to update to iOS 15.


Nope. Not supported.


iOS 12 is the end of the line for iPhone 6S and iPhone 6 Plus; to iOS 12.5.7, currently.


You’ll need a newer (used, refurb) or new iPhone.


An iPhone 6S or iPhone 6S Plus can update to iOS 15; to iOS 15.8.2, currently.


Any recent iPhone will be substantially more capable than an iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6S, or 6S Plus, as well.

You have the latest iOS for that iPhone hardware.


iOS 12 (iOS 12.5.7),is the end of the line for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.


You’ll need a newer (used, refurb) or new iPhone.

And if you’re going to hope for an unlikely event, hope for a huge lottery win, or a surprise inheritance.

Update iOS 15 I want it


If you want it, you need to buy a newer phone capable of running it.


For the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus – which shipped with iOS 8 when Apple introduced them in September 2014 (nearly ten years ago) – iOS 12 is the end of the line.


I would recommend that your new phone be one capable of running iOS 16 or 17. There are still many apps that support iOS 15, but in a few years, as Apple continues to release new versions of iOS, third-party app vendors who abandoned iOS 12 long ago may abandon iOS 15, too. We have already seen that in scattered instances – e.g., the Netflix app won't run on anything less than iOS 16.0.

I can not download or update any apps..its's requere ios 14 or more..but can't download or update..now what can i do..plz suggest otherwise I can't use this phone


If you can't use a phone without apps whose developers have chosen to require iOS 14, or higher, then it is time for you to purchase a newer iPhone.


The iPhone 6 Plus will never be able to run iOS 13, let alone iOS 14.
