How can I update my iPhone 6 to iOS 16?

The Apple iPhone 6 as well as 6 Plus, released as far back as September 2014, support updates as recent as iOS 12.5.7, a security patch released in 2023. Due to hardware restrictions, iPhone 6 models unfortunately do not support any major drops from iOS 12 onwards.

The iPhone 6 has reached the end-of-life support for Software Updates to the latest iOS operating system, which makes it vulnerable to online malicious cyberattacks.

You are invited to visit an Apple retail store to discuss your iPhone upgrade options.
