Good day Rtclinton, 


It sounds like during the download and installation of iOS 15 you’re encountering an error message. Additionally, you have reviewed Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch for assistance. 


Here are some steps to take when there is an issue updating If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch won’t update There are a few sections in this article and you’ll want to work through them. 


If your devices are on the same network, testing from a different network is a good idea as well.


Lastly, as indicated in the article you originally reviewed, you can update via a computer. 


Thank you.
