While you cannot schedule specific times to update, you can schedule automatic updates. When you do this, the update will take place overnight while the iPhone is charging and attached to wifi.


Update iOS on iPhone - Apple Support

  1. Go to Settings  > General > Software Update > Automatic Updates.
  2. Turn on Download iOS Updates and Install iOS Updates.

When an update is available, iPhone downloads and installs the update overnight while charging and connected to Wi-Fi. You’re notified before an update is installed.
