User level: Level 1 (4 points)I just purchased an I watch. It is paired with my phone. Today I received an email to “update the IOS software”.
I only opened it, but the first page lists TERMS AND CONDITIONS——-agree or disagree.
is this the method that is used to update software ? I’m a senior and not particularly knowledgeable about these areas.
‘please advise.

Following up on IdrisSeabright’s response …
Did you in fact start a system software update and then overtly request the Terms and Conditions be sent to you by email?
If you did not overtly request an email as part of the process, be careful you are not dealing with a phishing attempt.

If I recall correctly, when you do a system software update, you have the option of having the T&C sent to you by email. But without seeing the email header, it's hard to say exactly what's going on.
