How to Download & Install iOS 26.2 / iPadOS 26.2 Update
Be sure you first backup iPhone/iPad to iCloud before beginning the system software update process:

Go to “General” and then choose “Software Update”
Choose to “Update Now” to download and install iOS 26.2 for iPhone or iPadOS 26.2 for iPad

If you’re still running iOS 18, you will see an aggressive push to get iOS 26.2 onto your device, but you can ignore that and choose to install iOS 18.7.3 instead if you’d like to just install a security update to iOS 18 instead.
The iOS 26.2/ipadOS 26.2 update is large and will require the iPHone/iPad to restart to complete installation.
Users can also choose to update iPhone or iPad with a Mac using Finder, or a Windows PC.
