iOS is up to date

As of today, iOS 15.8.3 is the latest version of iOS 15, and the latest release of iOS which an iPhone 7 can run.

About iOS 15 Updates - Apple Support

The "iOS is up to date" message does not mean that you have the latest version of iOS, period. The iPhone 7 isn't compatible with iOS 16, 17, or 18 and will never offer updates to them to you. "iOS is up to date" indicates that you are as up to date as possible for your model of phone.

You can’t it’s not supported

I can’t update the iOS 15.8.3

If you want to update to iOS 16, you will need an iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus or iPhone X.

If you want to update to iOS 17 or iOS 18, you will need an iPhone XR or higher version model.

You can't.

Yes I want to update iOS 16

Not if you have an iPhone 7. You can update one of those all the way from iOS 10.0 to the latest release of iOS 15, but no further. iOS 15 is the end of the line for that phone.

You can update an iPhone 7 to the latest version of iOS 15. See the Apple Support articles already linked to in this thread. You cannot update an iPhone 7 to iOS 16 or higher.

What happens when you try?

Can you post a screenshot of the whole screen, it could reveal why you aren't able to update.

Make sure you:

• Are updating to a version that your phone supports.

• Are using a WiFi connection (not a hotspot).

• You have an active cell signal (You need both WiFi and cellular service to perform the upgrade).

• Are not using a VPN connection.

• Have your battery charged at least 50%. Better yet, keep it plugged in during the update.

• Do not have power save mode turned on.

• Do not have a beta version installed.

• You have at least 10 gigs of storage available.
