No WiFi but unlimited cellular data why can’t I update ios
No Wi-Fi available within 15 kilometers but I have unlimited cellular data and a halfway decent signal so why can’t I update without non existent Wi-Fi ?

Hmmm, iPhone 13 pro and I can’t update without Wi-Fi. I live in the sticks and I’m getting alledged 5G at least that’s what it says.
So, no, that is apparently not quite true at least in my case in Southern California
Because carriers don’t want the traffic of 500 million updates (that’s the actual number eligible for iOS 15 updates) overloading their networks, which operate very close to capacity on normal days. Most carriers allow updates over 5G (REAL 5G, not 5Ge, which is LTE relabeled for marketing reasons), because 5G has much higher capacity than LTE. If yours doesn’t allow 5G updates maybe you should change carriers.
You can update iOS on cellular data only on those phones that support 5G.
