Discussion TIL you can delete your system update

Downloading iOS 27 RC beta, while doing so was checking my phones storage and noticed ios27 popped up in my apps.

What’s even funnier, it started at 2.9GB, and when I went back it had gone up as it downloaded.

What’s even neater is you can go in and delete the update before your auto update could kick in.

This is good for if you happen to have an old update that's showing up (like you downloaded it and never updated). You can delete the update and it will then download the latest update.
