How to stop iphone from downloading latest iOS update

[Herr Kutz]

My iphone keeps automatically downloading the latest iOS update despite having all automatic download options set to OFF in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and randomly pops up the message to install the update. Considering the phone is 3 years old now, and thus very laggy, I really have to pay attention to keep them from tricking me into an installing. The reason for not updating is several apps that I use are not 64 bit I want to continue to do use them. I have now deleted the update that the phone has automatically downloaded TWICE, but I'd like to prevent it from downloading in the first place. How can I do this?

You can install the tvOS beta profile and it'll block all the updates for you. It'll install a feedback app on your phone but it's legit and you can just put it away in a folder if you'd like!

I just had to delete the download for a third time.

Is that for iOS? I did a quick google search and it looks like that is for apple tv???

Yes but you can download the profile onto your iPhone and prevent it from checking for any updates. Have it installed myself!
