This article --> Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support has full instructions about how to update with wi-fi or 5G. If using 5G you may wish to read the support article "Use 5G with your iPhone" --> Use 5G with your iPhone - Apple Support . If you cannot use either of those methods, the first article includes links to instructions about updating with a Mac or PC computer.
