Can I upgrade a device to the latest version of iOS?

In some cases, SimpleMDM allows you to update the version of iOS on your devices. For this option to be available, the following must be true of the device:
  1. Device was enrolled using DEP.
  2. Device is in Supervised mode.
  3. Device has detected that an iOS update is available for it in the App Store.
  4. Device has sufficient power (battery life) available.
There are two ways to initiate an update:
  1. To upgrade a single device, click on the device to go to the device details screen. Next to the OS version display, there will be a button available, allowing you to update the iOS version. If no button is available, the device does not meet the requirements above.
  2. To upgrade multiple devices at once, go to the devices listing. Select the devices you'd like to upgrade and then, from the drop down menu in the upper right, select the option to update iOS version.
The update command will be sent to your device(s) and the device(s) will update shortly.
