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.

Interesting, maybe the alarms is why this has never once worked for me that I can remember.

Same here. Same problem on my watch.

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

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.
