Updating to iOS 14 on your iPhone 6 Plus: We Can Dream, Right?
Ah, the iPhone 6 Plus. A trusty steed, a loyal companion...but let's be honest, not exactly a stallion in the world of cutting-edge tech these days. Especially when it comes to the elusive iOS 14.
**Face it, folks, updating your iPhone 6 Plus to iOS 14 is about as likely as successfully teaching your grandma to dab. **It just ain't happening.
But hey, that doesn't mean we can't have some fun, right? So, buckle up and join me on this whimsical journey through the not-so-wonderful world of updating a phone that's practically a museum relic.
Step 1: Denial is a Beautiful River in Egypt
The first step, as with any major disappointment, is denial. Insist that Apple must have made a mistake. Surely, they wouldn't leave their beloved iPhone 6 Plus users hanging, would they? Fire up Google and search for some highly suspicious articles with titles like "iOS 14 on iPhone 6 Plus: The Secret Apple Doesn't Want You to Know" (spoiler alert: it's a clickbait fever dream).
Pro Tip: While you're searching, dust off your old tin foil hat for maximum effectiveness.
Step 2: Bargaining with the Tech Gods
Okay, denial isn't working. Time for some bargaining. Maybe if you offer your iPhone 6 Plus as a tribute to the tech gods, they'll bestow upon you the magical iOS 14 update. Leave it on your windowsill overnight with a plate of gummy bears. They can't resist those, right?
(Disclaimer: Gummy bears not guaranteed to appease the tech gods. They might have a thing for Sour Patch Kids instead.)
Step 3: Acceptance (with a Side of Reality)
Alright, alright. We all know where this is headed. There's no iOS 14 for the iPhone 6 Plus. But hey, that doesn't mean your phone is useless! It's still a champion for making calls, texting your BFFs about cat videos, and playing the classics like Snake.
Look at the bright side: At least you'll never have to deal with the struggle of choosing which widget to put on your home screen.
The Final Update (Because Seriously, There's No iOS 14 Update)
While you can't update your iPhone 6 Plus to iOS 14, there are ways to keep it feeling fresh. Make sure you're on the latest version of iOS 12 (which you can check in Settings > General > Software Update). Regularly delete unused apps and photos to free up storage space. And who knows, maybe someday there'll be a jailbreak that unlocks the forbidden iOS 14 on your phone. (Though, jailbreaking comes with its own set of risks, so proceed with caution!)
Hey, chin up! There's always the option to upgrade to a newer iPhone that can handle the latest iOS versions. But until then, rock your iPhone 6 Plus with pride. It's a true classic, after all.
