Are you wondering how to update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS? Well, you’re not alone who don’t know how to do this. Many people want to enjoy the new features and improvements that come with each update, but they don’t know how to do it. Don’t worry, we are here to help you with this simple guide to update an iOS to its latest version on your iPhone.

What to do before Updating an iOS to Its Latest Version?

First of all, you need to check if your device is compatible with the latest iOS version or not. You can find easily the list of supported devices on Apple’s official website. If your device is not on the list, then you’re out of luck. Then you’ll have to stick with the current version or need to buy a new device.

1. Check Your Device Compatibility

If your device is compatible, then you need to make sure you have enough space for the update. The size of the update may vary depending on your device and the previous version you have installed, but it’s usually around 1-3 GB. You can check how much space you have available with a few simple steps.

• Tap on the Settings app.
• Tap on General.
• Now tap on iPhone Storage.

If you don’t have enough space, you can delete some apps or photos that you don’t need, or use iCloud or iTunes to back up your data and free up some space.

2. Connect Your Device to Wi-Fi and Power Source

Next, you need to connect your device to a power source (make sure your iPhone’s battery is charged enough if not connected to a power source) and a Wi-Fi network. Updating your iOS over cellular data is not recommended, as it may consume a lot of data and battery.

You can also enable automatic updates to get the notifications of latest update on your iPhone.

• Tap on the Settings app.
• Tap on General.
• Now tap on Software Update.
• Tap on Automatic Updates.
• Turn on the toggles for all options (Download iOS Updates, Install iOS Updates).

This way, your device will download and install the updates automatically when they are available.
