2 Options to Update iPhone to iOS 12

Apple's new phone, iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and iPhone XR, released last week, caused a big stir because of its new features, high prices and everything else. Followed that, Apple soon unveiled iOS 12 on Sept.17, which comes with more secure as well as less buggy compared to previous iOS version. It can even perform faster and show improvements on different aspects. Is it sounds attractive? See whether your iPhone is compatible with iOS 12 firstly and learn how to install it on your iPhone if you can’t wait to make upgrade.

Can my iPhone run iOS 12?

Good news: Every device that can run iOS 11 can also run iOS 12. Here's the list:

First things first: Back it up

Before you update, use either iCloud or iTunes to back up your iPhone before installing iOS 12. Otherwise, data loss will easily happen to you after upgrade. Though iPhone data recovery, like Joyoshare iPhone Data Recovery, can work, it's better to make backup file. You might also need to free up some space; iOS 12 is 2.77GB in size.

Method 1: Over-the-air update

If you are on a Wi-Fi network, you can upgrade to iOS 12 right from your device itself -- no need for a computer or iTunes. Just connect your device to its charger and go to Settings > General > Software Update. iOS will automatically check for an update, then prompt you to download and install iOS 12.

Method 2: Update via iTunes

If you are near your computer with iTunes, it might be faster to update this way. In previous years, I've found it faster to update via iTunes than over the air.
First, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes by opening the Mac App Store app and clicking on Updates to see if an iTunes update is listed.
With iTunes updated, connect your iOS device. Click the iPhone or iPad icon in the top-left corner of iTunes, next to the drop-down menu for the various sections of your iTunes library. Next, click on Check for Update > Download and Update. Follow the prompts, accept the terms, and let iTunes do its job of updating your iPhone or iPad.
