How to initiate an update

Hi, I am new to this board and have a question important for me:
today an update popped up and showed a new version of /e/os.
The download failed because of the bad connection.
Now I am looking for manually starting the updater. I do not know how to initiate the updater, I could not find an app to start the update.
Hints are heartily welcome.

Regain your privacy! Adopt /e/ the unGoogled mobile OS and online servicesphone

Hi @Jerry99 welcome to the forum. As it happens I wrote a post on second pass update here today!, you will just have to sift out all the bits that don’t apply to you!

Look up your device on https://doc.e.foundation/devices to find your Download .img.

Please be sure the phone is 100% charged before you start.

Ask again if at all unclear! :slight_smile:

Getting Started on /e/OS

Hello @Jerry99,
I guess you just want to find the app responsible for system updates.
Go to Settings → System Updates.
Or on older /e/ versions I think its Settings → System → System Updates.
Or just search for “system updates” in the settings.
