There are several reasons why your iPhone might not be updating to iOS 14.Hollis Johnson

If your iPhone won’t update to iOS 14, it might mean that your phone is incompatible or doesn’t have enough free memory.
You also need to make sure that your iPhone is connected to Wi-Fi, and has enough battery life.
You may also need to restart your iPhone and attempt to update again.

The latest version of the iPhone's operating system is called iOS 14, and it's now available for installation on your phone.

iOS 14 includes a completely overhauled set of widgets that you can mix with app icons on any page, a more compact interface for incoming calls, picture-in-picture for video, a translation app, and more.
