How do I update my iPhone 7 to iOS 16?
I want to use iOS 16

iPhone 7, iOS 15
An iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, or iPhone SE 1 isn't capable of 16 or above; they require an A11 or better CPU.

You can install iOS 16 on an iPhone 8 or an iPhone XR......but not on an iPhone 7.
The iPhone 7 can only go as far as iOS 15.8.3.
