1. Before getting iOS 14.7, back up your iPhone

As always, we recommend backing up your phone before you update the software.

Before you do anything, back up your apps and data. While this software is as stable as any normal update, it's just good practice to make sure you're all backed up in case anything goes wrong.

2. Download from the Settings page

Here's the easy bit, it's just a case of downloading the software and your iPhone will do the rest.

If you head to the Settings app (that's the one that has a grey background with a cog in the center) and then head to the tab called General. Under here, you'll find a section called Software Update.

That's where you should find an update ready and waiting with a button that says Download and Install. If you haven't previously updated to other software, you may need to do that before progressing to iOS 14.7.

If you don't see an update for iOS 14.7 here yet, you should do in the coming days. If not, it may be that you're already running the software - and you'll know that as it'll tell you the version of the software you're running on this page.
