Updating an iPhone 7 to iOS16:

iOS16 is not an option for your iPhone model (7). This is because it does not have the hardware capable of using it.

1. Go Here: iOS 16 - Apple
2. Scroll to: See the full list of what’s new in iOS 16.
3. Screenshot

You can update to iOS 15.7.3, but not iOS 16.

To update over the air from the phone all of these requirements must be met:

• You need at least 10 GB of free storage for iOS 16 or 6 GB for iOS 15 or lower; more is better
• You must be connected to a Wi-Fi network (and not a personal hotspot)
• The phone must be charged to at least 50%, and preferably plugged in so it stays above 50% during the update
• The phone must not be in Low Power Mode
• The phone must not be connected through VPN, and it may be necessary to delete any VPN apps and VPN profiles
• The phone cannot be in Airplane mode and must have a cellular data connection
• You cannot still have a beta version installed on the phone
• You cannot have a previous version that was downloaded, but not installed - go to Settings/General/iPhone Storage to look; if you find an iOS installer, delete it

If you can't meet all of them you can still update using your computer.
