Update Using a Computer:

You have an obsolete device(iPhone5) for updating over Cellular. Note that updating will only go so far. So, perform the update using a computer. If anything is available, it will install, sure enough.  Use my User Tip:  Update your iPhone Using a Computer - User Tip


IMPORTANT: If you have an option to update, however, then be certain you back up your iPhone first. That way, you will have something to restore your iPhone from should anything go wrong with the update.
