iPhone 12 (all variants - mini, 12, 12 Pro, 12 Pro Max) is on Apple's compatibility list for iOS 26. To update: 1) Back up first. Open Settings → Apple ID → iCloud → iCloud Backup → Back Up Now, or plug into a computer running Finder and create a local backup. 2) Connect to Wi-Fi and plug the iPhone into power. 3) Go to Settings → General → Software Update.
iOS 26 should appear; tap Download and Install. The file is around 5-7 GB and takes 15-45 minutes depending on your connection. If iOS 26 doesn't appear, check Settings → General → Software Update → Beta Updates is off, and that you have at least 8 GB of free storage. iPhone 12 supports most iOS 26 features but lacks the A17 Pro chip required for Apple Intelligence - that's a hardware limit, not a settings issue.
