I have just answered your other post


iOS 14 is not available anymore. But good news, all of the devices that ran iOS 14, are eligible for an update to iOS 15. The most recent version is iOS 15.6.1 and you can upgrade to that one .


If updating wirelessly is not working, please update via a pc or Mac instead

On a Mac with macOS Catalina or higher, you will use the finder in order to upgrade your iPhone. Make sure to Back up your device before starting the upgrade process.

On a Mac with macOS Catalina or later, you will follow the following steps:

  2. Connect your device to your Mac via a lighting to usb A or a lightning to usb c cable
  3. Select your device in the left sidebar of the finder window
  4. click general, then click check for update
  5. Click download and update.

Sadly Apple doesn’t allow downgrading to older version of iOS for security reasons. Similarly, they don’t allow updating from an older version of iOS to a newer, but still older version of iOS (e.g. iOS 12 > Update to iOS 14).

Apple signs the SHSH blobs for iOS versions, and without the blobs being signed on their server, the update won’t go through. Although you can download any iOS version using IPSW.me for research testing.


The only version you can update to is the absolute latest one, in this case being iOS 15.6.1, being released today.
