No download button

iOS update doesn't have download button available

It says needs WiFi.. I do have WiFi. I've restarted the WiFi and on the iPad and iPhone and the internet. I've also restarted my iPhone a few times and it still doesn't show up to download and install.

It's been several days.

iPhone 14 Pro Max

Attempt an Update Using a Computer and Ethernet:

Alternatively, you can use Ethernet through a computer.... To avoid this persistent notification on your iPhone, try updating via a computer. If you cannot use Wi-Fi, then use Ethernet.  Go Here: Update your iPhone Using a Computer - User Tip. On the computer, you would connect it through Ethernet, going directly into your router. For a Mac (or PC) that does not have Ethernet, this would be the adapter to use: Belkin USB-C to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter - Apple

"No download button: Thank you for the information!! My computer is not available right now, so I'm hoping they will fix the update. This is the first issue I've ever had with that. Thank you so much!

You are most welcome.


Ask someone else if you may use those computer. Or, maybe use a computer at school or work for this, if permitted.
