How to download iOS 15

2. From General, tap Software Update. If the iOS 15 beta is ready, it will be there waiting for you.
3. Tap Download and Install. You will have to input your PIN or passcode and accept Apple’s terms of service.
4. When the phone is ready to install the OS and restart, it’ll notify you with an on-screen prompt. Accept that prompt, and your iPhone will shut down.
As the software installs, you’ll see an Apple logo and a progress bar. Once everything’s completed, you’ll be prompted to unlock your phone with your passcode and enjoy your new iOS 15-powered device.
