I want to get the new iOS15 update

I want to get the new ios15 update, and it says I need 1.83 GB of available storage during installation, but I have 2 GB not taken up. Can someone help or am I just dumb?

The message states “at least 1.83 GB”, so you’ll seemingly some need more free storage here. You’ll either need to free up more storage, or update using a Mac or Windows computer. Having 2GB free is “full”, too; not enough room for anything else that might happen, and performance can suffer here.

You are not meeting all the requirements. You need to have at least a 50% charge, better yet, leave it plugged into the charger while updating. You also need to turn of Low Power Mode. And you need at least 6 gigs of free space.


Make sure you:

• Are using a WiFi connection (not a hotspot).

• Have your battery charged at least 50%. Better yet, keep it plugged in during the update.

• Are not using a VPN connection.

• Do not have power save mode turned on.

• Do not have a beta version installed.

• You have at least 6 gigs of storage available.
