Every time I go into the iOS software update settings to make sure my iPhone is fully updated to iOS 26, I keep getting an error message that says unable to check for update, an error occurred while checking for a software update. Please fix this bug?
it’s scary cuz i will want to be able to update later when apple releases subsequent updates
Same issue…please help!
I've got the same on iPhone 16 Pro.
You will have to reset your phone, I had the same issue and after resetting the phone it was good to go
I have the same problem on IOS and ipadOS but not on macOS and tvOS. It could be an server problem or Apple might want to reduce server load and prevent users who already installed iOS 26 from constantly checking for new updates.
Same error
I’m pretty sure we will end up having to restore
Any updates?
Same here, Iphone 15
Thanks
After upgrading to IOS 26 on my iPhone 14 Plus, I get and error "Unable to check for update". Same error on iPad that was updated to 26.
Same issue here , 16PMax
Same her, sad from Apple
You realised this is a beta release right? They’re not obligated to provide an update.
For me the error is fixed. I did nothing, just waiting and now it’s working again.
Force restarted my iPhone, and the bug was finally resolved.
