iOS 16 is now OUT! Apple's latest software update for iPhones has been released and Indian users have been getting the update notification in the late hours of September 12. However, most users will be seeing the update notification pop-up this morning. iOS 16 brings a lot of changes with regards to customisation and other smart features. Sadly, it is leaving a couple of older iPhone models behind this year, forcing people to upgrade to newer iPhone 14 models that were announced last week.

Nonetheless, if you want to get your hands on iOS 16 stable version at the moment, you simply need to follow a few simple steps. Note that those who have booked the iPhone 14 series devices won't need to worry since these phones will come with iOS 16 preinstalled.
