Enable Automatic Updates in iOS 12

Note: I tried the following method on my iPhone X running iOS 12.0 Beta, and the method worked just fine.

1. First off, head over to Settings -> General -> Software Update.

2. The phone will first check for any new updates. Now, tap on “Automatic Updates”.

3. Simply enable the toggle next to “Automatic Updates”.

And that’s it. Your device will now automatically search and download iOS updates in the background, whenever they are released.
