Halllo there friend!


so a few things

  • make sure you do NOT have a VPN installed or active (delete them and their profiles)
  • if you had to delete VPN restart phone and try again
  • if no VPN make sure you’re on a network that isn’t restricted- common restricted networks are: public, library, hotel, restaurant, college, work, Mobile hotspots, etc.
  • if this fails attempt to update using iTunes (windows or macOS 14.x and earlier) or finder macos 15.x)
  • if no computer available try different WiFi network


hope this helps
