iOS 18 update: How to get your update
Apple will officially launch iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 on September 16. The company aims to bring you many updates. But is your iPhone eligible for these updates?
- First and foremost, you need to free up storage space on your iPhone to get the update. iOS updates may require more space. So, start by deleting some unused apps. To delete any app, just touch and hold the app's icon. Then you will find the 'X' option, click on it and your app will be deleted.
- Sometimes the content of your social media apps can take up a lot of space on your device. For example, large PDFs and audio files can take up a lot of space. Apart from this, we share thousands of texts and videos/photos on WhatsApp. These can also take up space. Therefore, you have to delete them as well. Try clearing the chat history and cached files.
- Another way is to optimize your phone's storage. Try storing high-resolution photos or videos on iCloud. You can also store a backup of your iPhone on iCloud. This helps create more storage on your device.
- Lastly, you need to fully charge your phone before downloading the update. Apart from this, you should also make sure that your device is connected to a good network.
