On your Apple device, open Settings (System Settings on macOS), then go to Privacy & Security. Here, scroll down to the bottom of the page, then choose Background Security Improvements. Here, ensure that "Automatically Install" is turned on. If so, the update should install on its own, but there's no telling when it'll do so.
