I have space but my iPhone 6s won't update

My iPhone 6s says it needs 3,51GB available storage to update to iOS15.3.1 and I’ve got 3,8GB available and doesn’t want to update. What’s the problem?

What happens when you try?


Can you post a screenshot of the whole screen, it could reveal why you aren't able to update.


Make sure you:

• Are using a WiFi connection (not a hotspot).

• You have an active cell signal (You need both WiFi and cellular service to perform the upgrade).

• Have your battery charged at least 50%. Better yet, keep it plugged in during the update.

• Are not using a VPN connection.

• Do not have power save mode turned on.

• Do not have a beta version installed.

• You have at least 6 gigs of storage available.
