ios 15.0.1 Update won’t work

I’m trying to update my iPhone 12 to iOS 15.0.1, it’s plugged in, above 50% battery, VPN is off, connected to wifi, I’ve tried deleting the update, shutting down my phone, nothing seems to be working.

It keeps getting paused and then it says an error message, how do I fix this?

Make sure that your iPhone is setup to meet the following requirements before you attempt to update the iOS version-

  • Your iPhone must have a fast Wi-Fi connection; you cannot update over cellular data or a cellular hotspot
  • The iPhone can not be in Low Power mode
  • The battery state of charge must be above 50%
  • Your iPhone must have at least 6GB or more free storage space
  • Your iPhone cannot be connected through VPN
  • You should leave the phone plugged in until it finishes updating, both to assure that it remains above 50% and to keep Wi-Fi enabled (Wi-Fi turns off when the phone sleeps if not connected to power).
