I want to update my IPhone 8 plus

An update will not improve the performance of your iPhone 8 unless you first start deleting data to the point where you have 20-30 GB of free space on the phone. More would be better.

Additionally, the iPhone 8 Plus cannot update to iOS 17 or the soon to be released iOS 18.

If you plan on running newer iOS versions like iOS 17 and / or iOS 18, you are going to need a new phone.

Your iPhone cannot be updated past iOS 16.

If your iPhone stops receiving iOS software updates support, it’s time to buy a new iPhone ⇢

• Buy iPhone - Apple

Keep in mind, in a few weeks, Apple will be releasing a new lineup of iPhones!

iPhone models are compatible with the latest iOS 17 ⇢ iPhone models compatible with iOS 17 - Apple Support

If you need more physical storage for apps, then it’s worth looking into upgrading your iPhone. 📲

If you need more file storage for photos, videos, documents and messages then consider adding ⇢ iCloud+ for details. ☁️

Good Luck! 👋🏼😉
