The update will show up under General > Software Updates for new ‌iPhone‌ 12 owners who still have iOS 14.1 installed. New ‌iPhone‌ 12 models come with iOS 14.1.

On the Mac... download the IPSW from ipsw.me and copy it to ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates/

Open a Finder, Choose your phone OPTION + UPDATE and select the IPSW file.
