What is happening when you try to update the software on your iPhone?


  1. You need to have at least 6GB of free space to do an over-the-air update.
  2. If you have a VPN turn it off.
  3. You must have a good WiFi connection.
  4. Your phone must have at least a 50% battery charge and preferably connected to power.
  5. Low Power mode must be turned off.
  6. Make sure you do not have a beta profile.
