iOS 16: Will it launch today? Should you update your iPhone now?
While today's Apple Far Out event will be all about the iPhone 14, we also expect Apple to make some announcements regarding the iOS 16 software. Announced originally at the WWDC 2022 event, the iOS 16 update is bringing some vast changes to the iPhone user experience this year.

Hence, we think it won't be a sin to download the iOS 16 update as soon as it gets released.
