    Phone lets you know there’s an update available and says it will automatically update overnight.

    Next day rolls around and you see that the update has inexplicably not been applied.

    I think this happens when alarms are set. Same thing happens for me on Android. I think the companies are afraid of pushing an update that might cause scheduled alarms to not go off on time and cause millions of people to wake up late for work.

      That only happened once, but the world economy still has not fully recovered.

      Thanks for explaining. I always update manually, so I wasn’t aware of this issue.

        Same here. Same problem on my watch.

        You’d think it would apply over the weekend (no alarms) but apparently not.

        I think this is the answer. This used to always happen to me but hasn’t in over a year, since the baby was born and I stopped bothering setting an alarm.

      Weird, it never does that for me. It just applies the update in the background and then asks for permission to reboot at 2am.

      Companies aren’t afraid of anything…they really don’t give two shits and if they did for some reason, they would just pay people in power to make rules to have them never get in trouble.
