iOS 14.5 was a big update, especially for privacy and the ability to unlock your iPhone while wearing a mask using the Apple Watch. In contrast, iOS 14.5.1 is a link update. Here is what Apple says:

This update fixes an issue with the transparency of application tracking, which may prevent users from having “Disable application tracking requests” in the settings from being asked after re-enabling the option. This update also brings important security updates. It is recommended for all users.

To download iOS 14.5.1, go to Settings> General> Software Update. Otherwise, you can go to our exclusive page listing the different firmware. You can download the update and then perform a manual installation from your Mac (via Finder) or Windows PC (via iTunes).
