How To Download iOS 14, iPadOS 14, watchOS 7

All Apple software updates are mostly done automatically if you're connected to a Wi-Fi network. However, if you wish to check if the update is available and manually download it, here's how you can do it. Open Settings > General > Software Update. Here, you should be able to see the latest iOS and iPadOS update. Similarly, the watchOS update can be done once paired with your iPhone, via the Watch app.

To note, the iOS 14 and other software update comes a day after the Apple Time Flies event, which announced the new Apple iPad Air 2020 and the Apple Watch Series 6. The new software update is certainly welcome as it brings in many new enhancements for smoother performance on these devices.
