There can be a delay before the big yearly iOS update appears. We run through fixes for the most common issues encountered while installing a new version of iOS below. Unfortunately, as easy as an iOS update should be, and even if you have done all the preparation recommended above, there can be problems.

Grab a copy of the iOS you are updating from (if you can): It may be comforting to have the option to revert to the version of iOS you updated from, although Apple doesn’t make it easy to downgrade iPhone software.

Also, check it’s a safe network–we don’t recommend you do this over hotel Wi-Fi, for instance.

Connect to WiFi: Make sure you’re downloading over Wi-Fi, not via cellular, or you may end up running out of data.

We have advice about ways to save space on an iPhone. If you still don’t have enough space, iOS will also offer to temporarily remove some files for you. If you don’t have a spare 20GB or so on your phone then delete some apps to make room–you can reinstall them afterwards as you already own them so they are associated with your account.

Another reason to hold off updating straight away is that it can be wise to wait a week or so until Apple issues iOS 17.1, which is usually a fix for any bugs that arrive with the first iteration.

Those who couldn’t wait until that date were able to join the Public Beta program and install iOS 17 as early as June (or July for the Public Beta).
