Backup your device before updating!

On iCloud

1. Settings
2. Tap on your Apple ID username
3. Tap on iCloud
4. Scroll down -> iCloud backup
5. Tap on Back Up Now

Locally (Not recommended)

1. Plug in your iPhone to iTunes
2. In iTunes, "Back up Now"

How to update your device?

Settings -> General -> Software Update.

If you prefer to use iTunes.

1. Plug in your iPhone to iTunes

Protip — Update your iOS device and leave it plugged in overnight, in a well ventilated area :)

FAQ

What's new?

2FA?
With iOS 11, you'll be upgraded to make use of the newer iteration of 2FA. In this version of 2FA, you'll no longer be required to provide an additional password. To learn more click here

What's the difference between over-the-air (OTA) and iTunes update?
No difference

My phone is warm during/after update :(
This is normal, keep your iPhone plugged in overnight after the update.

My iPhone feels sluggish
Give it a few days!

Do I need to reset anything?
No.

My app doesn't launch!
It's most likely a 32-bits App. 32-bits App are no longer supported in iOS 11. Please contact your App developer to get the App updated.

I'm on iOS 10.1 can I jump straight to iOS 11?
Yes you can.

I already have iOS 11! I'm a beta user!
Well, you might want to remove the beta profile if you don't to continue testing iOS 11

Weird, like more people talking about iOS11 in iPhone section.

But iOS11 should supposedly be more exciting for iPad users, looking forward, although I tried the beta on my old iPad 2017 previously for a short while only without being able to fully try everything.

Anyone has issue with the camera app where you are able to take photo using the back camera but when you switch to the front facing camera it will hang.

Seems like after updating to ios 11 i have this issue.
