You do not write which iPhone you use, but if you use iPhone 6S/7/SE 1.Gen you can update to iOS 15.7.3

If you use iPhones 8 or later, you must update to iOS 16.3.1


If you are experiencing problems updating, try deleting the iOS Update file and download it again.


First, delete the iOS Update file. Go to:

SettingsGeneraliPhone Storage.

Find the iOS update on the list and delete it.


After that, Restart your iPhone. Then connect to Wi-Fi, and charger, and go to:

SettingsGeneralSoftware Update and try again.


Leave your iPhone in the software update menu and preferably don't use it while downloading.
