How to remove the software update download on your iPhone and iPad

When you get the same message every day, you might get bored of this pop-up trick. Recently, I had this nightmarish experience: my laptop kept asking me for a software update..

Even though we have already installed the update to the latest iOS version downloaded, how annoying it is to receive this message every morning! But not anymore. Follow this method to remove a software update download from your iPhone and iPad.

You will no longer receive that annoying update message every morning. Additionally, if you want to update the software in the future, all you need to do is:

Launch the “Settings” app → go to “General” → tap on “Software Update”.

Now download and install the latest software update in your iOS device.

Recently, software update is getting quite difficult since many iPhone & iPad users have faced issues like incorrect iOS version showing in iOS device's “Software Update”, updating. iOS 9 update stuck at "Update requested" etc.
