Is there any way to perform updates like this without putting it on? It seems pretty annoying to have to put it on just to navigate to settings, tell it to update, then take it off again.

Imagine this being said about any other device - a phone, a laptop, a desktop, a watch - that's it's too annoying to use to install an update.
