iOS Update Restrictions:

You Can't. Updating an iPhone 7 Plus would only be restricted to iOS (iOS15). iOS 16 is not an option for your model.


For reference...

Update Using a Computer:

1. Back Up First:

IMPORTANT: If you have an option to update, however, then be certain you backup your iPhone first. That way, you will have something to restore your iPhone from should anything go wrong with the update


then...


2. Proceed with the Update:
