If you're using an iPhone 6s or later, you can easily update your phone to the latest version of Apple's iOS operating system. iOS 15 brings you the latest security updates from Apple, as well as plenty of new features to obsess over. With redesigned notifications, improved Maps and Weather apps, a more streamlined FaceTime experience, new Focus modes, and the ability to identify and search for text in photos, iOS 15 offers many improvements over previous versions. This How.com.vn article will teach you how simple it is to update your iPhone to iOS 15.
Steps
Connect your iPhone to a power source. Before starting an update, you'll want to make sure your iPhone has a steady supply of power. Using your normal charging cable, connect your iPhone to a wall outlet or powered USB source (like a computer) before you continue.- Although updating is safe, it's always a good idea to back up your iPhone to iCloud or your computer before making any major changes.
Open your iPhone's Settings. This is the gear icon on your Home screen. If you don't see it there, you'll find it in your App Library or by searching.
Tap General. This option also has a gear icon, and it's in the third group of settings.
Tap Software Update. It's the second icon at the top of the screen.
Tap Upgrade to iOS 15. As long as you're using an iPhone 6s or later and haven't already upgraded, you'll have the option to do so now.- If you see a message that says your phone is already up to date but the version number starts with 14, don't worry—there's still an iOS 15 option. Just scroll down to the bottom if you don't see it on the screen.
Tap Install Now. If you have automatic downloads set up, tapping this option will immediately install iOS 15 on your iPhone. If not, tap Download and Install first, and then tap Install Now once the download is complete.- The update can take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on your phone's speed and your internet connection.
- When the update is complete, your iPhone will restart and ask you to sign back in with your passcode or biometric.
