Update problems

When I try to update my iPhone Se 2020 to IOS 15.7.1 it loads for a bit and then says unable to update. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?


-I have cleared out my storage

-My phone is connected to power and stable wifi

-My phone was at 74% battery when I tried to update

Restart your iPhone and make sure you have enough storage to install the update.


If this doesn’t work, then go into Settings > General > iPhone Storage > iOS 15.7.1 and delete the update, then go back and re-install the update.


Make sure you aren’t using any VPNs, proxies or have a beta profile installed.



If all of the above doesn’t work, you will need to update using a computer.
