How to update iPhone to iOS 17.2

iOS 17.2.1 is rolling out to all iPhone models starting with the XR/XS and the second generation iPhone SE. So, if the update notification appears, try to install it as soon as possible to prevent the issues from getting worse and damaging the device.

For those who need to use their mobile phones during the day and cannot wait for the update, it is possible to install the system at night. For those who have not received a notification regarding the update, it is possible to check the new update directly in the device settings.

So, the way to check if the update is available on iPhone is: Go to Settings option, tap on “General” and then select “Software Update”. If the update is already available, you'll see “Update Available.” If the device is already updated automatically, the warning “iOS 17.2.1 – iOS is up to date” will appear.

Battery health can affect device operation

If the cell phone is up to date and the user continues to notice that the battery lasts for a short time, it is necessary to check whether the battery health of the device is within acceptable limits. Over the years, every smartphone experiences battery degradation, which reduces the time between charging cycles.

Therefore, it is recommended to check the battery health in Settings. The information is available in the “Battery and charging status” option under the “Battery” menu. The maximum capacity indicates the health of the device. Finally, those with less than 80% charge deserve a battery replacement.
