Sooner iOS 10 will release to the public  as schedule on September 13th and with that in mind, you’ve got less than two days to prepare your devices before you can download the latest and greatest iOS firmware release from Apple.

In this piece, we’ll talk about how you can properly prepare your devices for installing iOS 10 so the installation goes as smoothly as possible.

Obviously, if you’re jailbroken and you intend to stay jailbroken, then you should probably just disregard this post because upgrading to iOS 10 will cost you your jailbreak.

On the other hand, if you’re not jailbroken and don’t intend to jailbreak in the near future, then you should probably consider following the steps we’re about to talk about.

1. Make sure you have a compatible device

iOS 10 adds a ton of new features to Apple’s mobile operating system, but you’ll only get to use them if you can install it on your device.

As always, Apple limits the devices that iOS 10 can be installed on because of performance or usability reasons. Before using your time to download the software update from Apple, make sure you have a compatible device.

Those include:

  • iPhone 7
  • iPhone 7 Plus
  • iPhone 6s
  • iPhone 6s Plus
  • iPhone 6
  • iPhone 6 Plus
  • iPhone SE
  • iPhone 5s
  • iPhone 5c
  • iPhone 5
  • iPad Pro 12.9-inch
  • iPad Pro 9.7-inch
  • iPad Air 2
  • iPad Air
  • iPad 4th generation
  • iPad mini 4
  • iPad mini 3
  • iPad mini 2
  • iPod touch 6th generation

If you don’t have any of the devices listed above, then you won’t be able to install iOS 10 (sorry!).
