Hi, I see you are having difficulty with updating your iPhone. Here is some information I think will be helpful for you:

  • Restart the iPhone
  • Make sure you have at least 1GB of free space.
  • Make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi.
  • If none of that helps, you can use a Mac or Windows PC (With iTunes https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210384 do not get the microsoft store version) you can update the phone with a computer.
