Q: No wifi and no computer to update through iTunes

Basicly I love in the middle of nowhere and are waiting on new wifi services to be hooked up so no wifi or computer to update through iTunes. Are there other ways for updates to be done or such a thing as free wifi

iPhone 6s, iOS 9.3.1

    Updates are done through the App Store and require an Internet connection.  If you can get to an Apple Store, ask to use their Internet connection to download/install updates.  Free WiFi exists, usually at places like Starbucks, but you'd get a faster, more secure connection if you went to an Apple Store.

    Your cellular carrier may offer Wi-Fi Hotspots as do just about any retail business, coffee shops, grocery stores, etc. You can upgrade to a newer iOS there.
