I hadn't gotten an update since April. Tried fiddling with the update settings on the Bronco, nothing. Apparently I missed one entirely, maybe two (4.2.1.1 to 4.2.2.1).
Then, Saturday afternoon out of the blue, I get a notification on my phone (Ford app) that I got an update.
From what I understand, Ford controls which vehicles get the updates on a push schedule. The vehicle UI makes that sound like you can "schedule" updates, but really all I think that does is say how frequently your vehicle will check to see if you have an update ready to push to your car.
So unless Ford's ready to allow you to download an update, I don't know there's any setup that's going to fix that.

Updates are rolled out. Not everyone will get them at the same time. Your OTA history in Oasis shows everything is working as it should.
I have been stuck on 2.3.1 since June. I really want full screen AA/Carplay but not sure if it will happen. Bronco says updates are on and set for 1am. Ford Pass says auto updates are off. I toggled them on the Bronco. We shall see.
This does work to get updates.
The only way that I know of is to do it manually but that is a long process and not recommended if you are not sure on what you are doing. I did it for my F-150 when they rolled out BlueCruise and didn't want to wait for Ford to push it to me. It took a total of about 8 hours to push all the updates it needed to my truck a correct battery charger to keep the battery at a constant 12v, a $500 OBD connector and a $50 two day pass to Ford FDRS software. I haven't tried it on the Bronco as I sold the connector since I only needed it for the one update but that is the only way I know to update it. Other than that you have to wait for Ford. The manual way is very tricky as you could end up bricking the entire vehicle if you choose the wrong settings during the setup process.

I followed this guide but again this was for F-150s and as far as I know no one has tried it for a Bronco so I would not recommend it unless someone with more experience and knows what there are doing does it first.
Manually Update F-150 Update Guide
Got a 8/28 update to make CarPlay easier. Before the update my phone would automatically wirelessly connect and launch CarPlay. Now I have to go into phones and select mine every time. Definitely not “easier”.
