Step 1: Download the Right IPSW Fileįirst, download the IPSW file for your specific iPhone from the list below in either the 13.0 or 13.1 section, depending on what you want to update to. We have not personally tested the tool out, however. If you have Windows, try using 3uTools, as it's not officially possible to install iOS 13.0 or iOS 13.1 via an IPSW file on Windows machines. If you're running macOS 10.15 Catalina, it's done via Finder. Just know, you'll need access to a macOS computer running iTunes to do so. If you want to go the manual route and install iOS 13.0 or 13.1 on your iPhone via your computer, you'll need to download the IPSW file for your iPhone model, then install it. If you have " Automatic Updates" enabled, it's possible that iOS 13.1 will install itself during the night (under certain conditions), so if you're still wary about iOS 13 in general, make sure to turn that off. Just like any other iOS update, open your Settings app, then go to "General," followed by "Software Update." When the update is ready, it'll appear, and you can download and install it using the on-screen prompts.

If you want to get these features right away, the OTA is the best approach, but the restore image method is better if you want to get rid of any persistent bugs you've been experiencing. New features in iOS 13.0 and 13.1 you'll want to start using right away include Dark Mode, wireless mouse support, tons of changes in Safari, Collections in Apple Maps, and a completely redesigned Reminders app, to name just a few things. Ditto for the 13.1 update issued on Sept. 19, can be installed over the air or from a restore image using iTunes in macOS Mojave and older or Finder in macOS Catalina.

After months of testing, iOS 13 is available to install on your iPhone, which means over 200+ new features you can use right now.
