Please open Settings > general > Software update. This will show your current version iOS. If you are eligible to upgrade, you will be prompted to do so. If not prompted, your iPhone cannot be updated. If you have gone thru these steps but encountered an error message, please let us know what it. Is.

Same. My error says “Software Updated Failed. An error occurred downloading iOS 15.7”. I looked in apps to remove it and reattempt and it’s not listed. Restarted my phone to attempt again and no luck. I tried the iOS 16 update and it says I don’t have enough room to update, despite having more than double the space required.
