How to Download Over-The-Air Update..?

The OTA (over the air) usually comes to your device automatically but there is no guarantee how long it would take you to receive the OTA individually. This means even if the update is available in some parts of your region, you may not get to see it for weeks due to phase-wise roll out. So, the alternative way is to search for the software on your own. To do it,

  • Go to device Settings > System Updates 
  • Now Tap on Check for Updates.
  • If the 41.3.A.2.247 update is available up simply tap Download to begin

The software for May 2019 may weigh a lot in size. So, the ideal way is to find and connect to a Wi-Fi network. Then download the OTA via Wi-Fi. It will save your carrier data charges. Your Sony Xperia XZs must have at least 50% or more before installing the new May 2019 security update.
