If the iOS update has been downloaded but isn't installing, here are some steps you can try:


1. Ensure Sufficient Battery

- Make sure your iPhone has at least 50% battery or is connected to a charger.


2. Restart Your iPhone

- Press and hold the side button and either volume button until the power-off slider appears. Turn off your iPhone, wait a few seconds, and then turn it back on.


3. Delete and Redownload the Update

- Go to Settings ➡️ General ➡️ iPhone Storage.

- Find the iOS update in the list of apps and tap it.

- Select "Delete Update."

- Go back to Settings ➡️ General ➡️ Software Update and download the update again.


4. Check Your Internet Connection

- Ensure you're connected to a stable Wi-Fi network. If possible, switch to a different network and try again.


5. Disable Low Power Mode

- Go to Settings ➡️ Battery and ensure Low Power Mode is turned OFF, as it can sometimes interfere with updates.


6. Reset Network Settings

- Go to Settings ➡️ General ➡️ Transfer or Reset iPhone ➡️ Reset ➡️ Reset Network Settings This won't delete your data but will reset Wi-Fi and cellular settings.


7. Update Using a Computer

- Connect your iPhone to a Mac or PC with iTunes (or Finder on macOS Catalina or later).

- Select your device and click "Check for Update." Follow the prompts to install the update.
