How to fix Stuck on verifying error on iPhone or iPad
Before using the troubleshooting steps below, check that your iPhone is eligible for the beta update version. If you’re unsure, check with Apple support or your carrier for more information. If you’re sure, and you still can’t download the beta update and get the stuck on verifying error instead, use the fixes below.
Restart/force reboot
This usually helps straighten out minor firmware crashes that can trigger the error in your iPhone. It’s likely that the update system crashed, causing the device not to connect to the update server, and got stuck on verifying the update. Perform a forced restart and reconnect to WiFi to see if it helps.
Turn WiFi off and on again
To do this:
- Tap Settings and select WiFi
- Toggle the WiFi switch to turn it off and then switch it back on
This refreshes internet functions on your iPhone or iPad and fixes app glitches and minor firmware crashes that cause random internet problems.
Forget WiFi and reconnect
Corrupted WiFi connections can also cause the problem, or if the connection is spoiled or interfered with by other WiFi networks saved on your device. You can forget it and reconnect by doing this:
- Open Settings>WiFi and turn on WiFi
- Go to the list of WiFi networks available and pick the one you want to forget
- Tap “i” icon next to the WiFi network and tap Forget this network
- Confirm the action
- Restart your device and go back to Settings>WiFi and toggle it off and on again
- Join or connect to the network again
Reset network settings
To do this:
- Open Settings>General>Reset>Reset network settings
- Enter the passcode for the device
- Tap confirm or OK to reset the network settings
The iPhone or iPad will reboot and you can retry downloading and installing ios 13 beta
Delete the update file
To do this:
- Open Settings>General
- Tap Storage
- Locate the update file from the list of apps and files
- Tap the file to select and tap Delete
- Confirm the deletion action and wait until it is finished
If the stuck on verifying error persists, use iTunes to update your device by connecting the phone to a computer, and click on iTunes then go to Summary>Check for Update. Click the Download and Install button if available.
