Alternatively, you can also pre-load the files via in-game settings. Follow these steps:

• Open in-game Settings and go to Resources.
• Tap on Pre-Install Now and Confirm.

Now you can tap on the Home button and let your device download the files. Unfortunately, you cannot play the game until the download is finished. That said, the Genshin Impact 4.7 pre-load size on mobile is around 1.6 GB to 1.9 GB, which isn't much, so it won't take long to finish.

In any case, it is highly recommended to use the pre-installation feature and download some files in advance. This will significantly speed up the update process once the new version is live and allow you to enjoy the content faster.
