The iPhone 4S and later, iPad 2 and later, and iPod Touch (fifth
generation) can run iOS 8.3. Unsure about the device model? Plug it into
your computer, open iTunes, and the model as well as the currently
installed version of iOS are listed under the Summary tab. You'll also
need to know the device's passcode in order to update. iTunes will
prompt you to unlock the phone or tablet once it's connected.
Alternatively, you can access the "Back Up Now" button under Summary in
iTunes. Double-check your work by clicking the iTunes top menu >
Preferences > Devices tab. You should see the name of the device and
the time of backup.
On the device, update by opening the Settings app, tapping on General,
and selecting Software Update. You can also connect the device to a
computer and find the software update button next to the backup section.
