On my iPhone, the Software Update section in Settings used to have a "Download Update" button. With iOS 11 it is replaced by an "Install update button", which means its downloading updates automatically.
Sometimes I get a message saying “Update will be installed after 10pm if connected to power”.
In order to get rid of the update data file, I used Settings -> Storage to delete the update. After few days the update was downloaded again and asked me to install.
My internet connection is a 4G hotspot with limited, expensive data. Every time an unnecessary update is downloaded it is a loss of money..
I have tried the Mikoto jailbreak tweak, but it doesn't work for this.
How do i get this tvOS Profile?
How can I stop iOS from automatically downloading updates?

iOS 12 actually sped-up iOS devices all around! I highly recommend you upgrade.
However, if you really don’t want to upgrade for personal reasons, you can install the tvOS provisioning profile for tvOS pre-releases on your iOS device. This should block iOS updates as your phone will be configured to fetch tvOS upgrades, but tvOS updates are not compatible with iOS devices.
