    Either way... you iPhone won't "Automatically" update itself. Yes, when an OTA update is availalbe a notification badge will show up on the Settings icon. However, it's up to you to not hit the update button in your iPhone's settings.

    Nope... you have to physically touch the Update button for the process to begin. :-)
