- Choose to “Download and Install” for iOS 16.5.1 / iPadOS 16.5.1
Installing the iOS 16.5.1 or iPadOS 16.5.1 update will require the device to restart to complete installation.
If you’re already installed and run iOS 17 beta on your iPhone, you will not find iOS 16.5.1 or any other iOS 16.x updates available on your device, unless you downgrade first anyway.
Older iPhone and iPad models that are not running iOS 16.x will find iOS 15.7.7 and iPadoS 15.7.7 available instead.
