How do I temporarily remove apps to update iOS?
My iPhone cs automatically did it in the past, but I have been trying to update to 17.4 for days now and I can’t even temporarily remove apps. Unfortunately this phone only has 64Gb.
iPhone XS, iOS 16

If you are referring to 16.4 then...
You cannot pick and choose an iOS version. What you get is Settings > General > Software update > [All options are available here]
You need to correctly Identify your iPhone model - Apple Support
