Want to download iOS 8 but my iPhone says it's up to date?

I have a iPhone 4 and seen everyone posting about new iOS 8. Normally when a new update comes out my iPhone tells me but it hasn't. When I go to general and then software update it says my software is up to date with iOS 7.1.2 how do I get iOS 8?

The iPhone 4 can't download ios 8. If you really want ios 8 you'll need to upgrade. I have heard that ios 8 isn't that good anyways.

The iPhone 4 is not compatible with iOS 8. Only these and up are compatible:

iPhone 4S
iPhone 5
iPhone 5C
iPhone 5S
iPod Touch 5th generation
iPad 2
iPad with Retina Display
iPad Air
iPad Mini
iPad Mini with Retina Display

"When it comes to iOS 8 compatibility, Apple requires an iPhone 4S or newer and iPad 2 or newer to update to the latest software. Only the iPhone 4 is cut from the list."

  • My iPhone says software up to date when ios7 came out At around 1:52pm my iPhone said that ios 7 was available but now my setting say that my software is up to date I don't understand what's wrong! :/
  • My iPhone says its up to date but its not? I have the iPhone 4s and every time I go into settings-general-software update, it says my software is up to date with iOS 6.1.3! All my friends have gotten iOS 7 already! Why doesn't mine say I need to update to iOS 7! And how can I make it say that? And I know that the iPhone 4s can get it.
  • My iphone says i'm connected to Wi-Fi but when i try to run something it says i'm not connected? My phone shows signal, it has a check mark by the device but when i try to open an app it says can't find a connection.
  • IPhone 4S says it is up to date but is not? I have an iPhone 4S, I go to download some apps but the app store says that i need to upgrade me phone upto iOS 0.8, I go to general and then software update said and it says my software is up to date with iOS 7.1.2. How can i update to iOS 8? Other question: I recently got my phone screen repaired and ever since then when i put on hands free on a phone call the other person I'm on the phone to can't hear me but it worked fine before hand. How can i fix this?
