Software download for iPhone 8 Plus

What kind of software?

There are different ways to ensure the highest iOS that your device will support is installed on your device. When updating, your device will update to the highest version currently available that it will support, or it will just say it is up to date (and can't go any higher) and won't install anything. If you want to run a higher system version than your current device is capable of running, you need to buy a newer device.

An iPhone 8 will update to 16.7.12

“How to get apps

1. On your iPhone or iPad, open the App Store.

2. Browse through the Today, Games, Apps, or Arcade tabs to find apps you like. Or tap the Search tab to

look for something specific.

3. Tap or click the price or Get button. If you see the Open button instead of a price or Get button, you

already bought or downloaded that app.

4. Double-click the side button on the right side of your iPhone—or the top button on your iPad— to

complete your purchase. If you use Face ID or Touch ID to unlock your device, you'll glance at your

device or touch the Home button to authenticate the download. You might need to enter your Apple

Account password to complete the download.
