Update what to what?
The iOS 18.0.1 updater is essentially 8GB in size but, due to requirements of decompressing and file replacement, can need twice that much in free space to permit over-the-air installation.
That can be overcome by using a computer to update your phone. See:
if you're using a Mac with macOS Catalina or later
or
if you're using a Mac with macOS Mojave or earlier or a Windows PC.
Note that Microsoft has a new app called "Apple Devices" replacing iTunes in newer versions of Windows"

How much space do you have? You likely need at least 10GB of free space on your phone to update it.
What was the error message you got when you tried updating using your computer?
it didn't even show any error it says that you can't install update, you need at least 6,33GB of free space (i have around 10) and i don't even have any button because of that so i can't really click anything
it says that i need 6,33GB and i have 10GB
