How To Get iOS 16?

iOS 16 has been available since September, and Apple has released several updates, the latest being iOS 16.5.

Although this update isn’t loaded with new features, it adds a My Sports tab to the News app and includes some critical bug fixes.

How can I download iOS 16?

  1. Plug in your iPhone and connect to Wi-Fi: 

Ensure your phone is connected to a power source and a Wi-Fi network.

While these steps aren’t strictly necessary (you can install updates without being plugged in if you have enough battery), it’s better to be safe, especially for large updates like iOS 16. 

Using Wi-Fi is recommended to avoid excessive cellular data usage unless you have an unlimited data plan.

Additionally, it’s a good idea to back up your device before updating.
