Hello! If you are unable to download a software update, please first check that you have enough space on your harddrive. You can do this by following these steps:

  1. Go to Settings > General > [Device] Storage
  2. There you'll see a few tips on what to do to free up disk space if that is the problem

If that did not work, try this:

  1. Go to Settings > General > [Device name] Storage.
  2. Find the update in the list of apps.
  3. Tap the update, then tap Delete Update.
  4. Go to Settings > General > Software Update and download the latest update.


I hope that this solved your problem, if you were to have any further questions - don't hesitate to ask!

Regards,

Alexander
