I’m trying to update my phone. I have a 13 Pro Max. I’m only seeing iOS 17.7 and not 18. How do I get the 18?

Turn off beta, refresh, then it should show up as an option.

Let me summarize the last 14 pages of this thread; you can't and there is absolutely nothing anyone here or at Apple can do to change that fact.
Be patient. Millions of users are trying to update.
iOS 17.7 contains all of the new security updates included with iOS 18, so if you want to wait a bit to install iOS 18, run the 17.7 update.
Look past the 17.7 update to see if the iOS 18 update is there.

its literally taking the longest jus to update idk why
I know why. It's because so many people are trying to download it, and it's overloading the servers. If you wait a couple of days, it will only take 15 minutes, maybe even less. So, you can wait now or you can wait later.
i saw that update in bottom. I have a doubt if we do that update will data loss? Isn’t this update belings to beta? Why i got this update size is 6.78 gb same as beta 18.7 . Normal ios 18 update is about 3.5 gb
How is no one replying to this one? It has the most upvotes. I’m in the same boat. I’m on the iOS beta and won’t let me update to the “official” iOS 18. It’s says it’s available but will say the “update failed”.
I have been facing this problem, i wanted to download the ios 18 but, sadly my beta updates was on and i've downloaded the beta update which was iOS 18.0 (22A3354). Last 4 days, Idk how to fix, i tried everything.

You may need to uninstall the beta software in order to get the production version.

Odd, I have the iPad Pro m4 and the option to update to 18 is not at the bottom. It updated to 17.7. My iPhone updated.
iPadOS 18 update for M4 iPad Pros has been paused due to issues causing the iPad to brick and be unusable.
I've just had my new I phone 15 pro max delivered and when setting up it requires IOS 18 to be installed. However after doing the initial installation and before it turns off and goes to the loading bar it just gets stuck on the installation page. Like I've waited 2 hours and no change. Please help
