New IOS update

Hi everyone,

I want to update my iphone 12 with the newest IOS 15.3.1 but every time i try to install the update, i get the notification that it can't be updated because i'm no longer connected to the internet. I tried to do the update elsewhere then hom but i still got the same problem.


Is there anyone who can help my out of this?

My phone only had 6 gb of free space & I think the update requires 5gb so maybe that was the cause.


You need about 7 GB device storage, see this Apple articles below:
