other methods

Can I update Android in other ways? Yes. There are two more methods that you can use without a computer.

1. Update through settings. You will need to go to the "About the device" section and first check for updates. We recommend this procedure only when connected to a wireless network. As soon as the system fixes the availability of a new version, it immediately prompts you to install it. By the way, in the same section you can install the “automatic update”, which will allow you in the future not to think about whether the files are available for download or not.
2. Update via Playmarket. The service for devices running the Android OS will allow not only downloading applications and games, but also updating the system.
