It is certainly not wise not to update your iPhone.

If you still want to disable the update at your own risk, go to -> Settings -> General -> Software update -> Automatic updates -> Disable : (1) Download iOS updates & (2) Install iOS updates.

The reason I am asking is because this update says that this update will do what is listed below..


This update includes the following bug fixes for your iPhone:

  • Battery may drain more quickly than expected after updating to iOS 15.4
  • Braille devices may become unresponsive while navigating text or displaying an alert
  • Made for iPhone hearing devices may lose connection within some third-party apps

Why would I want that happening to my phone with an update that could harm your phone.
