  • My other half's iPhone says it needs an update before she can phone or
    use data, but also says it's up to date. Anyone had this? I think it's
    an iPhone 5s?

    update on this - apple 'genius' says that this is a modem issue and can't be repaired and she'll need to buy a new phone. sounds like bullshit to me.

    What version does it have on it currently?
    It should support iOS 12, so if the phone has anything less than 12.1 (or 12.2, but that was only out yesterday) then it should be able to be updated.

    Connect to a computer/iTunes, download iOS from there and do an update/restore?
    Maybe backup what you need and completely wipe and start again with updated OS...
